Quick context to catch up fast.
On March 10, 2026, the Richfield City Council met in the Bartholomew Conference Room for a work session to review a midpoint update on the Penn Avenue reconstruction (south of 75th Street to just south of Highway 62) and to discuss a proposed traffic calming policy. Council reached consensus to enhance the existing signal at the 66th Street intersection with added pedestrian and bicycle safety features rather than install a multi‑lane roundabout. Further corridor analysis and community engagement will continue. The proposed citywide traffic calming program was deferred for future consideration, with staff directed to explore incorporating improvements into upcoming reconstruction projects (for example, 69th Street) and to evaluate long‑term policy and funding options.
