Hagersville Streetscape Plan

Big Move #2
Create enhanced crosswalks to market destinations and fill gaps
between destinations.
Impressions of Big Move #2:
o Traffic: very large traffic volumes (particularly truck traffic on
Main Street) creates an uncomfortable walk for pedestrians.

Intimidating: perceived distance of intersection crossings
may be intimidating to pedestrians, particularly those with
mobility needs or challenges.
Divisive: Main Street presents an edge not a seam between
the two sides of the street, which is important for tying both
sides together.
Key Buildings: there are key historic buildings framing the
historic crossroads surrounding the King Street and Main
Street intersection; the County building on one of the corners
strengthens the civic presence with the market square.
Hierarchy: a hierarchy and priority of intersections
throughout the area in terms of prominence and use.
