Commission recommends 2026 Master Transportation Plan, including pedestrian toolbox and speed reductions

Jul 21, 2026

The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended the 2026 Master Transportation Plan (MTP) to City Council after a presentation that highlighted a new pedestrian toolbox, traffic‑calming measures and proposed speed limit reductions on several town roads; council is scheduled to hold a public hearing next week.

The full story

Becky Divini, the town's Director of Public Works and Engineering, briefed the commission on the 2026 Master Transportation Plan and asked the commission to recommend the plan to City Council. The plan includes a newly developed pedestrian toolbox, a traffic‑calming toolbox, flexible roadway cross‑sections and an implementation schedule intended to make streets safer and more walkable across Addison. Divini said the town coordinated the plan with regional projects and that the DART Silver Line now being completed changed some priorities in the plan.
