The consultant studied quite a few locations, many which are near the various Dunwoody elementary schools. The document is a big one, but the conclusion is “After identifying the existing conditions of the study crosswalk locations, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. recommends that the City of Dunwoody set a goal of completing improvements at the nine priority pedestrian locations in the future. The next step in initial pedestrian facility enhancements is to select the top priority locations of the nine and move forward into design and implementation. The proposed pedestrian facility enhancements will provide for safer routes to schools, parks, neighborhoods, and commercial areas and will make the City of Dunwoody a friendlier place for families and walkability-seeking residents to live.”
Some of the biggest reasons we incorporated was to improve public safety and to promote a more liveable, walkable community. The pedestrian plan is a step toward accomplishing those priorities.
