This Wednesday, the City Council will review and take action on updated striping plans for the Commercial Streets sections of Park Street and Webster Street. They'll also consider extending the parklet program and maintaining the half-block closure of Alameda Avenue at Park Street. The Commercial Streets program launched in 2020 as an emergency measure to support businesses during the pandemic, and in 2021 the City Council authorized its continuance through November 2023.
The updated roadway striping aims to reduce parking confusion, efficiently utilize empty space and improve aesthetics on these two major commercial corridors. The proposal brings parking back to the curb, fulfills City Council direction to place concrete barricades around parklets, and uses the remaining extra space for striped bike lanes.
In the coming years, long-range planning for these corridors will be done as part of Active Transportation Plan implementation.
