Proposed safety and mobility improvements for Fruitridge Road, Arden Way and Auburn Boulevard will be available for public review this fall, with two upcoming community workshops offering residents an opportunity to provide feedback.
The workshops are part of Sacramento’s ongoing efforts to develop the Arden Way-Auburn Boulevard Mobility Plan and Fruitridge Road Safety and Mobility Plan, which aim to make the corridors safer and more accessible for people walking, biking, rolling, driving and using public transit.
All three roadways are part of Sacramento’s Vision Zero High Injury Network, which identifies streets with some of the highest concentrations of fatal and serious injury crashes.
Following earlier rounds of community engagement and technical analysis, City staff developed proposed improvements for both corridors and are seeking additional feedback before finalizing the plans.
“Community feedback has been an important part of developing these plans, and we’re excited to share the proposed improvements,” said Transportation Planning Manager Elizabeth Boyd. “These workshops give residents an opportunity to see how their input was used to shape the draft concepts and share their thoughts before the plans are finalized.”
Arden Way-Auburn Boulevard Mobility Plan
The Arden Way-Auburn Boulevard Mobility Plan focuses on improving safety and mobility along Arden Way, Auburn Boulevard and Harvard Street.
Community members are invited to review proposed improvements and provide feedback at the following workshop:
- When: Wednesday, Oct. 28, from 5:30-7 p.m.
- Where: Hilton Sacramento Arden West, 2200 Harvard St.

City staff also will share information about the plan and gather feedback at three upcoming community events:

- Saturday, Oct. 31: Trunk or Treat at Harley Davidson.
- Saturday, Oct. 31: Annual Harvest Festival at the Robertson Community Center.
Fruitridge Road Safety and Mobility Plan
The Fruitridge Road Safety and Mobility Plan focuses on improving safety and transportation options along Fruitridge Road between Riverside Boulevard and Stockton Boulevard.
Residents can review proposed improvements, ask questions and share feedback at the following workshop:
- When: Thursday, Nov. 12, from 5:30-8 p.m.

Additional pop-up events for the Fruitridge Road plan will be announced as details become available.
Both plans support Sacramento’s Vision Zero goal of eliminating traffic fatalities and serious injuries by identifying improvements that address safety concerns and make it easier for people to travel along and across these corridors.
Community feedback gathered during the workshops and pop-up events will help inform the final plans.
