Project Synopsis

The City of Dayton is taking a proactive approach to further enhancing and improving the safety of Main Street. Main Street in Dayton is not only the commercial core for commerce and tourism, it is a State Highway and the principal arterial for the city. Traffic on Main Street ranges from local traffic, semi-truck travel, pedestrian and bike traffic, to bus stops and more. As transportation modes continue to change and grow, the city recognizes the need to further develop Main Street to ensure safety and ease of use of all users. Some of the frequently discussed concerns surrounding the current development of Main Street include noise complaints, excessive speeding, limited and/or unsafe pedestrian crossings, and more. It is the intent of the Main Street Safety Action Plan to identify the known safety concerns on Main Street, discuss various solutions for addressing those identified concerns, and offering recommendations to alleviate those safety issues.
