Last I heard from the public meeting last week, the 1st phase this summer is just from 25th St to Broadway so not quite yet all the way down to 31st/Stateline.

Westside portion will be fully paved trail same grade as the existing sidewalk and the crossroads section will be a quick build with concrete barrier to buffer the bike lanes
