Executive Summary
The purpose of this project
was to determine the opinions of area
residents and business owners along Train
Avenue about the proposed extension of
the Towpath Trail through the Train Avenue
Corridor
•Findings:
•Train Avenue is in need of help – any and every kind of help
•All feel that the area is unsafe on many levels due to
lack of lighting, accumulated trash and
debris, indigent people, poor road conditions, and drainage problems
•Business owners want additional security and enforcement
by city and police
•Residents want a focus on the neighborhoods
•Towpath extension is a good idea, but other issues
should be addressed first
•Train Avenue has been neglected for far too long, and
needs to be addressed
