Elgin Sidewalk Gap Analysis

Update: The project was completed in February 2014.

In August 2011, the City of Elgin was awarded a Community Planning Program grant by CMAP to conduct a study of pedestrian and transit connectivity, specifically addressing sidewalks/paths and transit stops. This sidewalk gap and transit stop study will build off of previous studies the City has performed that included a transportation component. With the City's efforts to implement its Sustainability Action Plan, there is a need to inventory the roadway network and identify sidewalk/path locations and gaps to help with completing a more comprehensive multi-modal transportation system. Along with this analysis the City has an interest in working with Pace to identify appropriate locations and amenities for commuter bus stops.
