This project is the construction of a pathway along the Creamery Branch Rail Spur and streetscape improvements along 8th Street. The project path would include landscaping and lighting along the non-operational rail track next to 8th Street (between Rural Road and McClintock Drive) adjacent to ASU and near downtown Tempe. The streetscape improvements are adjacent to and integrated in with the rail path and would include street trees, enhanced sidewalks and improved bicycle lanes. This project will include ADA Transition Plan identified repairs within the construction project limits. The project will better integration with historic structures while encouraging appropriate redevelopment on vacant lots or deteriorating structures. Old 8th Street spans a significant prehistoric archaeological site and was the location of the Bankhead Highway. In addition, the Borden Creamery Complex (Four Peaks), the Elias-Rodriguez House, Marlatt's Garage, and the Kirkland-McKinney Ditch are all located along 8th Street.
