The City of Detroit is investing $80 million in bond funds to improve the city’s streetscapes and commercial corridors. These streetscape improvements support the City’s neighborhood planning efforts to improve the safety and quality of life for Detroit residents. Streetscape improvements can include a variety of amenities including sidewalks, bike lanes, improved lighting, landscaping, neighborhood branding, and more.
The goal of implementing a streetscape is to create a beautiful corridor where neighborhood businesses can thrive and where people feel safe and welcome. The improvements will better encourage all forms of transportation, including walking, biking, riding public transportation, and taking a car.
