From the Streetscape Master Plan draft:
NORTHERN GATEWAY
The following detail plan for the “Northern Gateway” shows one
potential design solution for the northern approach to Town on Route
719. The goals of this project are to improve pedestrian and vehicular
safety through the Town by slowing traffic and creating a physical
reminder for visitors that they are entering the gateway between the
surrounding countryside and the more densely settled town.
The plan shows a stop sign and “speed table” at Greenwood Commons Drive
as traffic calming devices for traffic entering Town. The speed table
is a slightly raised platform with decorative paving that provides a
visual and physical reinforcement of slower speeds required at the
intersection.
In addition, the Town sign is located at the same intersection to also
announce entry into the Town. The plan also integrates the overall
Master Plan recommendation for a continuous trail along Route 719 that
links up with the existing and proposed sidewalks on the West side of
Main Street in Town.
