There are currently the two different projects on the sidewalk/experimental to start the city: one on Martin Luther King Junior serious And the other in Taurus Branch Park.

“This plan will really affect how to build paths and sidewalks in the five years to the next twenty,” Seoin said.

General concerns of infrastructure on the current sidewalk

Eddie Chavez and Shannon Green is working in the Taylor Cycling Store, and both feel that investments have long been late for sidewalks.

“I stumbled on one of the steps he made in my neighborhood and just fell,” Chavez said. “These sidewalks are very rough.”

After that autumn, Chavez said that he had hit his back and struggled to walk properly for a few months.

“Mobility on foot, a wheelchair, on the bike, it’s not very easy,” said Chavez.

“If you are on any kind of wheelchairs or motorcycles and the transportation assistant – you must go along the way and down to the bottom to get to work here,” Green said. “I think it prevents people from shopping here, for sure, which is dangerous, like a journey all the time, and I am here every day.”

Taylor Kxan told them that they are planning to end Taylor Active Transportation & ADA next spring.
