Planned
improvements to Rosemead Blvd. will be the topic of discussion at a
March 24 meeting hosted by the City of Temple City.
The meeting will be held at Live Oak Park Community Center, 10144
Bogue St. Two sessions are planned: English at 7 p.m. and
Chinese at 8 p.m. Child care will be provided.
The March 24 meeting is the first of three community meetings
planned over the next six months to receive public input on proposed
improvements for Rosemead Blvd., a regional corridor that includes a
two-mile stretch through Temple City.
Improvements call for new sidewalks, street furniture, landscaped
medians, and critical road and drainage enhancements. The
project will also unveil a series of firsts for the city including
solar powered lighting, bike lanes and public art installations.
Initial design concepts will be presented at the March 24 meeting.

"The City Council's vision for the project is a pedestrian-friendly
and attractive grand boulevard that sets the tone for upgrading the
city's commercial corridors," said councilmember Carl Blum. "We want the community to share in the vision, and to help create a
blueprint for what Rosemead Blvd. will look like in the next few
years."
The project breaks ground in early 2012. Grants and
redevelopment monies will cover its $13.6 million cost.
