NEIGHBORHOOD MOBILITY MASTER PLANS

The City of Fort Lauderdale’s Neighborhood Mobility Plan includes many of the elements discussed by CharacterTowns.org. Neighborhood mobility, internally and externally, has been analyzed and planned for by the City. The community conversation seems to be very interactive, and hence, effective.

Traffic flow and access to sidewalks and bike lanes is not just a concern in the major corridors across the City, but also within neighborhoods. Neighborhoods experience cut-through traffic, a need for traffic calming, and a lack of sidewalks, lighting, and shade, all of which impact our neighbors on a daily basis. Oftentimes, these concerns are addressed on an individual basis; however, it is much more beneficial to look at a neighborhood holistically to understand what is happening and the best way to address any concerns.
