Complete Streets

Complete Streets policy is established on the principle that users of all ages and abilities of all streets require access to safe facilities. Modes of transportation are focused on pedestrians, cyclists, public transit and school bus riders, motorists, drivers of delivery trucks, and emergency responders.

The objectives of Barrington’s Complete Streets plan include:

• Remove or reduce barriers that limit access to destinations
• Connect destinations across Town
• Create and maintain safe routes to schools
• Promote linkages to open spaces, trail networks, Town Beach, and access points to the coastline
