A plan to improve 2nd Street as a green boulevard, tailored segment by segment to increase connectivity, catalyze investment along the corridor, slow traffic, accommodate bicycle lanes, introduce new plantings and back-in diagonal parking, and direct people in cars, on bikes, and on foot toward Downtown. The plan consists of three main objectives: creating a new road segment to connect existing Little Richard Penniman Boulevard with 2nd Street, re-designing and re-branding 2nd Street as the trunk that anchors Downtown’s tree-named streets, and re-routing truck traffic to the periphery of Downtown. These goals aim to foster a more hospitable environment for new development and improved links between neighborhoods to revitalize the districts surrounding Downtown Macon as well as Downtown, itself.
