Infrastructure and Safety

Pedestrians and Cyclists are among the most vulnerable road users on our Main Streets. Below are some projects Main Street Citizens support for improving the safety of non-motorised users:

 

  •     Sidewalks of suitable width for the expected pedestrian traffic
  •     Pedestrian crossings close to the desire line which allow pedestrians to cross roads safely
  •     Segregated pedestrian routes and cycle lanes away from the main highway
  •     Traffic calming and speed humps
  •     Low speed limits that are rigorous enforced
  •     Shared space schemes giving ownership of the road space and equal priority to all road users, regardless of mode of use


The proper infrasturuce Main Streets is critical to ensure that all residents are safe and secure.
