Huron Ave Traffic Calming
Downtown Port Huron faces critical challenges from past urban planning mistakes. Overbuilt roads and declining foot traffic threaten safety and business vitality.
City Council must advocate for change NOW, to avoid waiting decades for another chance at this transformative project. Let's urge them to push MDOT to add Traffic Calming measures with a road diet along Huron Ave for a safer, more vibrant downtown.Key Points for Solutions:
- Traffic calming for safer streets
- Road Diet to make crossing distances shorter
- Road Diet for bike lanes (St Clair County Trails Plan)
- Mid-Block Crosswalks to encourage foot traffic & safety
- Street Trees for a continuous tree canopy
- Wider Sidewalks
- Transit Stops
- Leading pedestrian signals to ensure people have time to cross
- No Turn on red for safer cross walks
