1. Over view and Goals:

1.1 The Project Area The Project Area was established by the Town as CDBG Target areas. Block 7162001 En rely Subset of 7162002 (4 Parcels targeted) Block 7163003 En rely Block 7161002 (Par al) Block 7161003 En rely The area was es mated to contain 20 miles of roadway.

1.2 Additional Area of Study

The Project Area for the purposes of the study was expanded to the west to allow a more complete inventory and assessment of the streets and sidewalks linking the ﬁ rst study blocks iden ﬁ ed above. A por on of Block 7162002 was included, to allow the review of streets linkages and between Block 7162001 and Block 7161003as well as to explore connec vity to the hospital. This adjustment added approximately 5 miles of roadway to the Project Area.

1.3 Study Target

While considered Town-wide study, The Project Area has been inten onally focused to include LMI Census Blocks. LMI (Low-Moderate Income) popula ons is deﬁ ned an Income equal to or less than the Sec on 8 Low Income limit as established by HUD. In 2014, this income was ______XXXXXX. In Clinton, 7.1% of the popula on lives below the Poverty Line, of that demographic 13.9% are residents that are 65 years of age or older. 88.2% of the Popula on is White, XYZ.

Complete Streets Survey & Planning Program - Clinton, Massachusetts 1.4 Project Quadrants

Early in the course of study, it was observed that the elevated Rail Road corridors and overpasses have created dis nc ve quadrants in Clinton. In large part, the rail beds, constructed on ﬁ ll, create earthen walls or dikes that compartmentalize the town into four primary quadrants. Each quadrant is connected to each other with either a minimum of two or a maximum of three street connec ons. These streets have dis nct ‘gateways’ or portals into the various quadrants, which consist of one at-grade crossings, one bridge and ﬁ ve bridge-underpasses thru which all modes (other than freight rail) must pass. The overall complexion of connec vity or street completeness Map of Rail Road in the Town is to some degree constrained by the existence of the elevated rail lines: Due to the long linear rail interface with project line embankments, there are rela vely few streets that make cross-town connec ons, thus forcing more vehicular quadrants and pedestrian volume on the six streets that do connect under or over the rail lines. The rail lines, like limited access highways in other communi es, limit the opportunity to provide alternate routes and relieve conges on. In the case of Clinton, Industrializa on has led to a pa ern of development of large mill complexes, o en built parallel to the tracks, thus further restric ng opportuni es for inter connec vity within the fabric of the town streets.

2.4 Sidewalks Street lights were not included as part of the asset inventory, however fi eld observa ons regarding ligh ng were made. For the 25 miles of streets within the study area, about 60% of the streets have sidewalks. That fi gure translates to 14.5 miles of sidewalks along these streets. In loca ons where there are sidewalks, the data collected indicated Few streets within the project area could be noted as over-lit. The majority of the streets studied were found that they are primarily located on both sides of the same streets: 12.7 miles confi gured as such, with only to be somewhat under-lit, or may have had no provisions for ligh ng at all.

Complete Streets Survey & Planning Program - Clinton, Massachusetts 2.9 Street Trees

Street Trees were not formally included as part of the asset inventory, however fi eld observa ons were made. Trees, more than any other feature, create character and defi ne the ‘feel’ of any street. The spacing of the trees, and branching habit, and canopy over the road creates diff erent reac ons from drivers, and has been associated with shaping driver habits – fewer trees, with no canopy over the road typically results in higher speeds, where alterna vely the more trees and greater the canopy cover, the slower the traveled speeds. Mature trees impart the greatest character and ‘sense of place’ values to any roadway corridor. Keeping these trees alive and in good health is balance with the opera onal aspects of the corridor in regard to roadway pavement, curbing drainage and sidewalks. It is o en a challenge to plan to widen streets, or add shoulders or create sidewalks in areas with mature trees that are in good health as the excava on work associated with the establishment of the roads and sidewalks can be invasive and incompa ble with health of the tree. Because of these challenges, the health of the trees within the Town’s ROW, should be inventoried and managed. While there may be many trees within the ROW, a thorough and cri cal review of each trees overall character, health and placement should be conducted. Likely result is a handful of trees in each The Main Street RR underpass appears dark in the day me community should be iden fi ed as high-value specimen trees, that due to their age, or on a rainy day. character, or size, should be protected, and proper Complete Street planning needs to take into considera on these trees.

Clinton, in general, has extensive mature trees through-out the Town, but few specimen street trees that warrant planning considera ons were observed within the project area. Many exis ng trees were observed and considered part of the streetscape but large Chestnut Street; Dis nc ve street trees limit numbers were found to legally fall beyond the ROW and as such, are privately held. sidewalk loca on op ons. Regardless, they contribute greatly to the overall character of the Town’s roads and should be valued.

2.10 Other Significant Features

Clinton, like many towns in Northern New England, has diverse topography. This town may be more varied and extreme than others, with pronounced hills and valleys encountered on every route in and out of the town center. Within the town, one ﬁ nds, to a large extent, level terraces or ‘benches’ of structures, such as housing or mills, o en all set at a consistent eleva on with rela vely ﬂ at, parallel streets, then intersected with crossing streets with steeper pitch and grades that connect to the next ‘bench’ of development- for example, the transi on from the Common, to High Street Corridor, to Main Street Corridor represents approximately 50 feet of grade change.

Extreme topography in the form of steep hills can impact the range of users u lizing any given street and sidewalk corridor. ADA accessible routes (not to be confused with ADA ramps) are 1:20 or 5% slope maximum. Bicyclists and walkers generally are deterred by slopes steeper than 1:10 or 10% and need more me and in some cases addi onal width of passage to make the connec ons. Clinton topography varies from 2% to over 20% slopes. In good weather, School Street; Steep topography may challenge pedestrians steeply sloped streets or sidewalks may deter some poten al walkers, and they may seek alterna ve routes or more likely alterna ve modes of travel, especially if the travel requires transpor ng other items. When the pedestrian is and bicyclists. carrying items such as grocery bags or clothing, steep sidewalk routes become even less appealing. In the winter condi ons with ice and snow on the ground, steep slopes make walking and the use of wheelchairs extremely diﬃ cult: when these mode are u lized it is frequently that there are no other modal op ons available.

During the course of the study, our observa ons of the physical barriers and limited connec ons between quadrants resulted in the crea on of four dis nct categories of need in regard to iden fying and establishing priority walk areas. Walking distances between diff erent types of des na ons and pedestrian origins were measured u lizing street centerline measurements, which most closely approximate sidewalk distances. Radial distances, in this study thought to be too generalized and non-responsive to on the ground constraints were not u lized for measurements resul ng in rankings.

Walk Opportunity Level 0: Des na ons can be found over 1 mile from the pedestrian origin. Given the topography and loca ons of the connec ng streets, it is likely bicycles would be the most suitable mode of travel: thus the walk opportunity does not score, however this rank does not eliminate the need for sidewalks, or connec vity, in par cular where there is evidence of need and /or probability of interest, and where no exis ng sidewalk system exists.

3.9a - Clinton Complete Streets Quadrant 1 (Area1) Description:

Study Area 1 is the North Eastern Quadrant of the Town, deﬁ ned by the Town line with Sterling to the North, the Nashua River to the East, Freight Rail lines to the West, and Water Street at the Southern-most end. This area includes two of the three Urban Principal Arterial corridors that convey traﬃ c in a North-South orienta on thru Town, Route 70, and Route 110. Route 70 crosses under the rail line (RR underpass) as it enters Sterling, and Route 110 bridges over the Nashua River before crossing in to Sterling.

It is noteworthy the landform of the Quadrant is then deﬁ ned by the river, the rail lines, and also small brook that ﬂ ows parallel to the two Arterials, in a North-South manner thru the center of the Quadrant, essen ally diving the Quadrant in half and framing the land uses to those associated with the Arterial corridors; to the East, along High Street, and to the West, along Main Street.

The Study Area also contains two of the three concentrated commercial districts iden ﬁ ed in the Town. Both Commercial Areas are located on the western ‘half’ of the Quadrant (as deﬁ ned by the stream) and are found along both sides of Maine St. (Rte. 70). The southernmost group is clustered surrounding the intersec on with Route 62 (Brook Street). The Northern-most commercial development is more linear in nature, reaching nearly to the Town line with Sterling.

This Quadrant contains many other diverse land-uses, from Fuller Field, reputed to be the world’s oldest baseball ﬁ eld, to auto salvage Yards, warehouses, and the Town’s Waste Water Treatment Facility. Ln between these uses there are pockets of single family neighborhoods and areas with apartments. Presco Mills Apartments is located on the Northern side of Water St. This facility is a Senior Living, Low Income Housing Complex with 100 units. Including the two Arterials, there are ﬁ ve North–South oriented connec ng or thru streets, and ten East- West oriented connec ng or thru streets. Main Street (Rte 70) and High St. are the only North-South streets that con nue thru in to Quadrant 2. There are two N-S Gateways (Quadrant Links) both at intersec ons with Water Street and two East West Gateways, one at Brook Street, and one at Sterling St. / Water St.

It is likely that any trip to Clinton Hospital from the Downtown or Neighborhoods to the East and South includes a route thru this Quadrant, either on Main St. or High St. and then onto Water St. or Brook St. to make the connec on to Greeley Street.

High Street Main Street

Complete Streets Survey & Planning Program - Clinton, Massachusetts 3.9b - Clinton Complete Streets Quadrant 2 (Area 2) Description:

Study Area 2 diﬀ ers from the other three Study Areas in that it is itself a des na on and represents the ‘Core’ and heart of the Town, organiza onally, geographically and architecturally. Streets in general are either ‘Links’ conveying users to other areas, or they are ‘Des na ons’. Quadrant 2 contains streets that are des na ons: a central downtown commercial ‘Main Street’ (although in Clinton it is High Street) the Town Hall, the Library, a Museum of African Culture, the Museum of Russian Culture, The Town Green, and several housing facili es.

The housing within the Study Area is populated by occupants with diverse demographics, with neighborhoods of single family owner-occupied homes as well as certain streets or blocks accommoda ng Low to Moderate Income residents. The area is approximately ½ mile square, and is accessed from out-lying quadrants through one of fi ve Primary Gateways, or one of only two Secondary gateways. There are six North–South oriented streets, and fi ve East-West oriented streets. Main Street is the only North-South street that con nues thru the Study Area, and Water Street is the only East-West street that con nues thru. Given the limited entrance points or ‘Gateways’ into this Core Area, applying Complete Streets solu ons to every street within the Core is key to enhancing overall walkability in this, the most central por on of Town. Later sec ons in this Study discuss Gateway treatments in greater detail, but in this case it is important to recognize not only the signifi cance of the Arterials and Collectors conveying travelers to the Gateways, but to also understand the implicit importance of the ‘Completeness’ of the network of Local streets beyond the Gateway ‘inser on points’, and as such, it is cri cal that the streets within the Core are equally accommoda ng of the various modes of travel (Vehicular, Bike, Walk) with a high level of user safety, convenience and comfort.

High Street Main Street

Complete Streets Survey & Planning Program - Clinton, Massachusetts 3.9c - Clinton Complete Streets Quadrant 3 (Area 3) Description:

Study Area 3 is dis nct in that the Quadrant is strongly deﬁ ned by several features that frame the area along the North and East edges, the sides that interface with the ‘core’ of the Town. To the West is Lancaster. North- South Rail lines as well as East West Rail lines that converge in the Northern-most corner of the Quadrant as E-W crosses over the N-S. In addi on to the intersec ng RR lines separated by elevated ﬁ ll and a RR bridge, Woodlawn Cemetery occupies the N-E corner. With a walled and fenced perimeter and rolling terrain, the cemetery reinforces the physical barriers created by the rail lines. Two small ponds frame the southern end of the Study Area, with associated feeder streams and wetlands further framing the available land. Due to the pronounced physical ‘frame’ surrounding this area, unsurprisingly connec vity to other parts of Town are limited, with one East-West Gateway (Quadrant Link) to the east where New Harbour Road intersects with Main St.( Rte. 70) and one North-South Gateway (Quadrant Link) where Woodlawn and Rigby Streets intersect with Greeley Street at 90 degrees. Land uses in this Quadrant include the Town’s DPW facility, a garage with storage and laydown yards for equipment, a small manufacturing facility and the afore men oned 30 acre Woodland Cemetery. The Clinton Housing Authority is headquartered in the center of the Quadrant, and there are approximately 240 housing units located along Lakeside Avenue and Fitch Road. Small to medium sized residen al units occupy the southern and western por ons of the quadrant. There is no recrea onal facility (ac ve or passive) in this Quadrant.

From a con nuous street corridor and connec vity perspec ve, this residents and users within this Quadrant are rela vely isolated. The isola on is enhanced by an exis ng street geometry that is awkward with three key sharp, acutely angled intersec ons that discourage thru movements for any user or mode, be it walking, bicyclists, or vehicular. Addi onally, the presence of the DPW facility places in this Quadrant places truck traﬃ c on to the one thru street (a series of connected streets func oning as a single street) leading to only two gateways, thus pu ng addi onal demands on the street corridors approaching the Gateway intersec ons.

Complete Streets Survey & Planning Program - Clinton, Massachusetts 3.9d - Clinton Complete Streets Quadrant 4 (Area 4) Description:

Study Area 4 is posi oned North of Quadrant 3 and as such it is physically deﬁ ned by rail lines to the south and east. There are two railroad underpasses where the streets pass below the rails, and there is one at-grade crossing. Historically, these rail corridors were framed by industrial uses, mills and warehouses, many of these structures remain intact and in-use today.

The Quadrant is home to several large employers in the manufacturing, recycling and fabrica on industries. Clinton Hospital is located in the center of the Quadrant. There are several areas of mul -story apartments closest to the Industrial areas, with single family residen al homes occupying the central and western por ons of the Quadrant.

The scoring refl ects the degree of 4.1 METHODOLOGY need for special bicycle provisions considered desirable: the lower ranked streets likely are small neighborhood streets with low volumes of traffi c, and as such likely require less bike provisions than other congested, higher This Sec on contains several Matrices that assess and rank the streets evaluated in this Study. The format of traffi c volume streets. the sec on posi ons a Matrix with a “How to Read this Matrix” Key on the opposing sheet, which indicates the meaning and values of the corresponding categories. Bike Opportunity Zone Scoring: Score of 1: No special considera ons are warranted for cyclists.

Pursue the crea ve linkages; The extensive rail road system and manufacturing history of the Town has created physical barriers that literally place walls in front of desired connec ons. Observa on indicates that many pedestrians move along or on the rail lines, walking into the commercial areas from the outlying areas. The Town may want to pursue the establishment of mul -use trails or paths that share the RR corridors and in essence acknowledge the age old adage that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points.

These a ributes will be confi rmed as part of the inspec on process and revised as required. The Road Surface RaƟ ng (RSR); is a numeric value to simplify the categoriza on of roadway condi ons. The RSR is based solely on the severity and extent of the distresses present in the roadway. Factors such as importance, Sidewalks traffi c volume, and roadway classifi ca on are not used in the calcula on. This RSR is presented on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst condi on. Sidewalks are inventoried as both linear and point features. Sidewalk lengths are calculated based on a comparison to the corresponding street centerline segment on a percentage basis. Point features were iden fi ed, The distresses considered for the calcula on of the RSR include Alligator Cracking, Linear Cracking, Edge Cracking, allowing the mapping of sidewalk maintenance loca ons. Potholes, Patching, Ru ng, Depressions, and Drainage. During the inspec on process, each distress, where present, is graded based on severity and extent.
