Downtown Complete Streets Improvement Project
It's official! On June 6, 2013, the City Council approved the design plans for the Downtown Complete Streets Improvement Project that will transform Main Street. A big "thank you" goes to the public for providing valuable input every step of the way!
Key features of the approved design include:
- Two wide lanes with angled parking on one side and parallel parking on the other;
- Bicycle lanes and bicycle racks;
- Burying utilities in portions of the project;
- Way-finding signage and space for public art and decorative banners;
- Relocating the clock tower;
- Trees and other plantings throughout;
- New light fixtures - all energy-efficient LEDS;
- Outdoor seating, including granite and metal benches with unique designs;
- An information center or kiosk;
- Solar-powered trash and recycling compactors;
- Parking kiosks, newspaper corrals,a new bus shelter, and so much more!
