APPLETON, Wis. — Downtown Appleton will see vehicle traffic lanes reduced and lanes for pedestrians, bikes and scooters added in their place.
Appleton Common Council on Wednesday approves the College Avenue Reconfiguration Pilot Project.
The 18-month program is an effort to reduce traffic flow and noise, along with risks to pedestrian safety.
Alder Nate Wolff believes the reconfiguration will finally make downtown more accessible to non-vehicular traffic…
Alder Christopher Croatt questions the cost of reconfiguration and whether there’s adequate public support…
The reconfiguration plan passed on a 14-1 vote.
The College Avenue Reconfiguration Project is expected to go out for bids later this month and be finished by summer’s end.
