As a Dunedin resident who wishes to prioritize walkability and pedestrian-friendly development, this is an incredibly visionary and comprehensive plan, and based on the survey results demonstrated within this plan, I know I am not alone in my desire. SR-580 has always been a cause for concern, and it is exciting to envision a day where there is calmer traffic, increased pedestrian visibility, and a focus on improved public transportation.
One area where I see room for improvement is higher focus on public transport usage throughout the city. If we can have an effective public transport system that we can all be proud of, we can facilitate higher economic engagement in our beautiful downtown without increasing vehicle traffic and provide access to those without golf karts or are otherwise too far away to reasonably walk or bike. Furthermore, we can encourage tourists to engage with public transport rather than use personal vehicles.
In conclusion, I express full support for this plan.
