Hagersville Streetscape Plan

Big Move #3
Ensure pedestrian connections between new developments and
the market.
Impressions of Big Move #3:
o Traffic: very large traffic volumes, particularly truck traffic,
create an uncomfortable walk for pedestrians.
o Voids: a number of properties with buildings that are set
back a considerable distance from the street and do not
reinforce or frame the street’s edge.

o
Interruptions: numerous curb cuts on the streets (particularly
on Main Street) where vehicles access properties, which
interrupt pedestrian movements and comfort; cars parked
adjacent to the public sidewalks.
Greenery: a general absence of street trees and plantings
throughout the area (particularly along Main Street).
Narrow: a generally narrow right‐of‐way (both Main Street
and King Street) for incorporating street edge plantings,
particularly in areas with interference from overhead wires.
Amenities: little to no streetscape amenities in the area, such
as benches, planters, decorative light standards, banners,
wayfinding signage.
