Description:
This project will create a multi-use pathway along a residential street as a safe corridor for pedestrian and bicycle traffic. Lakeview Street is regularly used for pedestrian traffic by seniors, students and young families. Lakeview Street is the first street parallel to Hudson’s main street and is the shortest route between the Hudson’s three schools. Lakeview Street also leads to a municipal park that has soccer fields and the community pool. The street is heavily used by pedestrians, and there is growing concern about safety as there is a lot of vehicle traffic on the street as well. Selkirk Street is also included in the project, as the multi-use path would take pedestrian and bicycle traffic from Lakeview Street to the Village and to a safe crosswalk that leads to another municipal park. The project will involve the construction of a 1.2-km multi-use pathway and the installation of a new 1.2-km drainage system to remove 80% of the suspended solids before they enter the Ottawa River. Installation of traffic-calming measures to reduce speeds and promote safety in the residential area Encourage active student and family transportation to schools, city parks and their facilities. Reassure seniors that there are safe walking paths for them to get out and be more active. The Town of Hudson also supports Municipalités Amies des Aînés (MADA) Québec, and this project is intended to encourage seniors to use active transportation more often and safely.
