Downtown Planning Topics

The Mansion House Pedestrian Bridge in Jim Thorpe, PA.

Downtown Access

Would you be supportive of a new pedestrian bridge across the river, connecting new Castroville to Old Town?

On the west side of the Medina River, a "paper street"** could offer the space necessary for this connection. The exact location would need to be studied. Would you support an initiative to find the right connection points for a pedestrian bridge?

This poll has concluded.

** "Paper streets" are the public roads that terminate at the Medina River. In the past, these access points were open and available to the public but now they seem to exist only on paper, as some neighbors have discouraged public access.

Medina River Access

Would you support the City looking into reopening access to this amazing river at one or more of the "paper streets"?
