Roseville Public Works, Environment and Transportation Commission Agenda Item DATE: January 27, 2026 ITEM: 4.b. ITEM DESCRIPTION: Keya Park Layout Recommendations Background The City of Roseville is considering modifications to Pascal Street near Keya Park to improve safety for people walking, biking, and driving. Residents and City staff have identified safety concerns related to limited visibility and speeding near Keya Park. In the fall of 2025, City staff did a pilot/demonstration project for six weeks to look at potential changes. The goal of the pilot project was to test how a narrower roadway might influence vehicle speeds, improve stopping sight distances, and enhance comfort for pedestrians walking to and from the park, before any permanent changes were made. The pilot project consisted of using short plastic posts (delineators) to show where new curbs could be placed if the roadway was narrowed in the future. Narrowing the street can help drivers travel at safer speeds and make it easier for everyone to see one another near the park as the pedestrians have their own dedicated space. If the road was permanently narrowed with curb in the future, a sidewalk would be added behind the curb from Brooks Street into Keya Park to provide dedicated pedestrian access. The City received both positive and negative feedback related to the pilot project (Attachment 3). Based on the feedback received and the concerns about safety that are still unresolved, staff is recommending the roadway be modified and a pathway be constructed between Brooks Street, into Keya Park (Attachment 2). A public open house was held on Tuesday, January 13, 2026, to receive feedback from the public on the updated layout. Based on the comments received during the pilot project and at the open house (Attachments 3 and 4), the City of Roseville will review three possible Pascal Street designs (Attachment 2) with the Public Works Environment and Transportation Commission (PWETC) and Parks and Recreation Commission (PRC) on February 5. Commissions will make recommendations to the City Council, which will make the final decision. The public was invited to both commission meetings as well as the City Council meeting on February 9, at which time it is anticipated council would approve a layout. If the project is approved, it would be included with the 2026 Pavement Management Project and be constructed in the summer of 2026. Recommendation Receive presentation and provide feedback to staff. Provide recommended layout to the Roseville City Council. Attachments 1. Location Map 2. Presentation Including Three Proposed Layouts 3. Pilot Project Comments 4.
