This plan is a thorough update of the successful 2013 plan, also co-authored by Teska in partnership with Baxter & Woodman. In addition to specific suggestions for road network improvements, the 2023 plan emphasizes alternative solutions to relieve congestion and improve accessibility by exploring opportunities for active transportation infrastructure and public transit access in the Village.
“We do this plan so we can have a map of the future to get things done... This is a strong guide that we would like to accomplish. At the same time, it’s amendable and adjustable... We did a good job on this plan identifying a lot of priorities and work is spread well around town. It’s not just one area. All neighborhoods throughout town are getting attention.”
