GuidelinesThe guidelines for the Bolton Core are intended toaddress the following key objectives:■■■■■Preserve and highlight unique character of thehistoric core of Bolton;Reinforce the identity of the area as a predominantlylow rise main street retail area;Expand and improve the streetscape and openspaces to create a beautiful place and enhanceaccessibility;Encourage revitalization of underused sites; andProtect surrounding established residential areas.2.1.2. StreetscapeThe streetscapes in the Core should reinforcethe historic character of the old village of Bolton.They should have a sense of unity derived froma consistent use of colours, textures and shapesin paving, street furniture, lighting, signage,planting and other elements. The three parts ofthe pedestrian realm: furniture/planting zone,walking zone and store extension zone shouldhave a uniform treatment.Background - The Town of Caledon and the BIA haveinvested in the streetscape of the core by using a familyof street furniture (street lights, litter containers, flowerpots, etc.) and upgrading the sidewalks. These are stepsin the right direction that should be encouraged andreinforced. However, more can be done to improve thestreetscape not only of Queen and King Streets, but alsoof Chapel, Elm, Mill, Ann, Sterne, Temperance and WillowStreets.PARTS OF PEDESTRIAN REALM, well distinguished oneast side of Queen Street23URBAN DESIGN GUIDELINESFINAL Bolton CIP Urban Design Guidelines | April 2009
