In a recent government meeting, officials emphasized the importance of enhancing pedestrian infrastructure along Main Street, aiming to create a walkable community that accommodates various modes of transportation. The discussions highlighted the Complete Streets program, which focuses on designing roadways that cater to drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians alike.

Key proposals include the development of a 12-foot wide multiuse path intended for shared use by residents and cyclists. This initiative is part of a broader effort to prioritize pedestrian safety and comfort. Officials noted that the design will feature strategically placed trees to provide shade, with a plan to have a tree canopy that enhances the aesthetic appeal of the area while also benefiting parked vehicles and pedestrians.

Additionally, the design will incorporate benches for resting, paver crosswalks to clearly mark safe crossing points, and pedestrian-scale lighting to improve visibility and safety at night. The overall goal is to create a vibrant and inviting environment that encourages pedestrian activity, making Main Street a model for future urban development.
