Harrisonburg Downtown Streetscape Plan


Harrisonburg Downtown Streetscape Plan
By Scott Rogers • February 19, 2014
Have you checked out Harrisonburg's Downtown Streetscape Plan? With the rapid growth and unique challenges in our downtown area, the need for a comprehensive planning document for public infrastructure has arisen. To meet this need, city staff, along with a committee of key stakeholders, have been working to update the Downtown Streetscape Plan. This plan will build upon the 2005 Downtown Streetscape Plan by expanding the study area and covering additional elements that are necessary to clarify the vision for downtown. Note: The Downtown Streetscape Plan is a comprehensive plan and vision, not to be confused with the Downtown Streetscape Project that will begin next summer. The City will undergo a second beautification project in the downtown corridor, called "Downtown Streetscape Project Phase II." This project will replace and upgrade sidewalks on the west side of Main Street, from Court Square to Wolfe Street. The Draft Downtown Streetscape Plan will go before Planning Commission in early 2014 for review and recommendation to City Council. There is a 36 MB, 89-page PDF here that has lots of exciting details about the Downtown Streetscape Plan. Happy reading, and I'll draw out a few highlights in coming weeks.
