This report identifies several recommendations to promote walking as a means of travel and improve the pedestrian experience along Washington Street, Main Street, and Franklin Avenue on the eastern edge of West Orange, adjacent to Washington Elementary School and a business district.
This report calls for improving pedestrian conditions along the corridor; addressing missing signage and parking concerns; re-imagining the intersection of Main Street and Washington Street; and providing safe access to Washington School through a bicycle boulevard concept on neighboring roadways. Recommendations were informed by a Walkable Community Workshop, a collaborative effort with municipal employees and community stakeholders.
