The Charlotte Street West Streetscape Project aims to provide an inviting gateway to the downtown core while creating a safe, vibrant streetscape. The project area focuses on Charlotte Street between Park Street and Aylmer Street. The project is in the conceptual planning stage.
The project goals include:
- Integrating multi-modal transportation options (walking and rolling, cycling, transit, and driving)
- Supporting sustainable, efficient, and accessible travel for all ages and abilities
- Balancing space needs for deliveries, loading, and parking for mixed travel types
- Strengthening user experience and economic growth with improved amenities and wayfinding
- Encouraging downtown activity through placemaking and urban design
This project builds upon past investigation and consultation work for Charlotte Street, incorporating new guidance from updated national and provincial transportation standards and recently approved City of Peterborough planning documents which include the Official Plan, Transportation Master Plan, Cycling Master Plan, and Central Area Urban Design Guidelines, and stakeholder consultation activities.
