Windham Comprehensive Transportation Study

Anyone who has traveled Route 302 through the North Windham commercial corridor is familiar with the traffic issues between the intersections of Route 35/115 and White's Bridge Road.  For the uninitiated, they include high crash locations, a total lack of access management, little or no provisions for through traffic or freight movement, and insufficient bicycle and pedestrian facilities.

The Town of Windham is seeking to build upon its previous efforts by undertaking a comprehensive study to redevelop the existing infrastructure and guide future transportation investments.  In conjunction with PACTS, the Town plans to develop a transportation plan for the North Windham commercial corridor that recommends access management, bicycle and pedestrian amenities, improved landscaping, connections between retail center parking lots, parallel service roads and means to finance the recommendations.  The plan is to incorporate concepts from the "Complete Street" movement, including access management, new bicycle and pedestrian amenities, and improved landscaping; to balance the dual function of Route 302 as both an inter-state travel corridor and a local commercial and industrial center; to integrate transportation systems that coordinate the use of parallel service roads and connections between retail center parking lots; and to identify funding sources and guide future public and private investments in transporation imrprovements.
