The city first applied for grant funding to put together a plan for enhanced bicycle and pedestrian connectivity four years ago.After several public readings and city official scrutiny, the plan is close to being pushed over the finish line, with action steps to follow.“It’s important from a transportation perspective, offering multiple ways for people to get from place to place.
The plan also looked at local safe routes to school. The Ranger High Tech Academy was rated as a top priority for improvement, followed by Liberty Elementary School, the Early Childhood Learning Center and finally the North Ridgeville Academic Center. The proposal also would remove the existing walkway that links the Drake Road sidewalk with the school parking lot and install new sidewalk along the west side of the existing southern driveway.
“By having this Active Transportation Plan completed, it allows us to use that study to apply for funding through funding partners that might give money for trails or connectivity projects, so that was also important,” Lieber continued.
