Bound Brook Walkable Community Workshop

2023

This report identifies several recommendations to promote walking as a means of travel and to improve walkability along Vosseller Avenue and West Maple Avenue in the Borough of Bound Brook. Recommendations were informed by a Walkable Community Workshop, a collaborative effort with municipal employees and community stakeholders.

The most significant obstacles to walkability in the study area are the sight lines at intersections and non-compliant driver behavior at crosswalks, such as failing to stop for pedestrians. The report calls for the installation and improvement of high-visibility crosswalks throughout the study area, bicycle infrastructure, adopting an updated Complete Streets ordinance, and addressing parking violations.
