Downtown Streetscape Improvement Project
The Main Street Streetscape Improvement Project is based on extensive engagement with downtown stakeholders that included public open houses and workshops during the development of the Downtown Master Plan, as well as detailed input at several Downtown Business Association meetings.
The design includes a series of strategic sidewalk improvements called bulb-outs or“ bump-outs” that increase the functionality and safety of downtown Leduc. These new and expanded special areas are critical to the project and set the stage for key improvements:
- Safer and enhanced pedestrian experience
- More resting areas and space for downtown visitors
- Safer and better crosswalks, with traffic calming
- New bicycle racks, bollards and waste receptacles
- More landscaping, flowers and trees
- New street lights with ornamental lighting
- Improved signage for parking and pedestrians
- Improved drainage and rectified grade issues
