Lincoln on the Move invested in improvements to approximately one mile of Northwest 12th Street from just north of West Adams Street (not including the intersection) to just north of West Highland Boulevard (including the intersection). These improvements included concrete repair or replacement, joint and crack sealing, curb and median repair or replacement, public utility adjustments, pavement markings and inlet top replacements. Also included in the project was paving with Ultra-thin Bonded Asphalt (UBAS). Additional work with other funding sources included upgrades to the existing curb ramps to comply with the Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.

This project was programmed as a part of the commitment to voters to invest significant sales tax funds into improvement of existing streets. The project was funded jointly from the Highway Allocation Funds (aka-Gas Tax) and ¼ cent sales tax for streets in accordance with ballot language.
Construction took place in 2025.
