The project team spoke with the owner of Mazzi's Italian Restaurant concerning event parking for the restaurant's Tuesday evening pizza nights during the summer. The owner conveyed that parking for the event could be accommodated by parking on side streets and agreements with neighboring businesses. 'The owner also conveyed a desire for an additional pedestrian and bicycle bridge across the Amazon Creek to connect the businesses on East Amazon Drive and West Amazon Drive and allow patrons to park on West Amazon using a pedestrian and bicycle bridge for access to businesses during events. Three bridges will be constructed as part of the Amazon Active Transportation Corridor Project, but none are proposed to be built at this location as part of the project. 5) Installation of a protected two-way bicycle facility on East Amazon Drive from Hilyard Street to Dillard Road (south end identified in the TSP as Snell Street) is identified as project number PB -48 in the Eugene 2035 Transportation System Plan, adopted by City Council on June 26, 2017.
