<strong>Streetscape</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> is intended to provide a comprehensive<br />
improvement strategy that can be phased.<br />
The Study established an overall “Vision” for each of the<br />
downtown areas, translating the County’s Big Moves to reflect the<br />
unique nature and character of the respective communities.<br />
Building from this Vision, the recommended “Big Moves” for<br />
<strong>Hagersville</strong> in the Study establish the overall foundation from<br />
which the <strong>Hagersville</strong> <strong>Streetscape</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> has been formulated.<br />
VISION FOR HAGERSVILLE<br />
“<strong>Hagersville</strong> boasts businesses and services for all needs. The<br />
local farmer’s market is a popular draw in the County, and is<br />
the hub of downtown on market days. Key downtown<br />
buildings, like the CIBC building, characterize the desired<br />
neighbourly feel of the streets. Streets are green and<br />
welcoming, and clearly connect to the greenway of the old<br />
rail line to the north. Clearly marked crosswalks for<br />
pedestrians and protected laneways support <strong>Hagersville</strong>’s<br />
role as a community for all people.”<br />
Big Move #1:<br />
Build upon the market square as the<br />
heart of the downtown by extending<br />
infrastructure improvements (sidewalks,<br />
streets and street furnishings) to<br />
adjacent users.<br />
Big Move #2:<br />
Create enhanced crosswalks to market<br />
destinations and fill gaps between<br />
destinations.<br />
Big Move #3:<br />
Ensure pedestrian connections between<br />
new developments and the market.<br />
Big Move #4:<br />
Implement strategic green interventions to<br />
provide moments for reprieve and gathering<br />
within the CIPA.<br />
