Milltown Pedestrian Safety Demonstration Project

2019

Two demonstration projects were implemented on North Main Street at the intersections of Ford Avenue and Church Street in the Borough of Milltown with the goal of addressing the long crosswalk distances, parked cars obstructing the view of crosswalks and vehicles not stopping for people in the crosswalks. Surveys collected after the project was implemented garnered positive feedback and indicated improved compliance with crosswalk laws.

This report recommends completing the proposed improvements on North Main Street, developing a Complete Streets implementation plan, and identifying additional locations for similar pedestrian improvements.
