City of Lebanon, New Hampshire
Pathways Consulting, LLC contributed hundreds of hours
in a largely volunteer effort to develop a grass-roots master plan to
involve the City of Lebanon and community at large in master planning
the Route 12A corridor. This effort was in response to NHDOT plans to
improve Exit 20 of Interstate 89 and the Route 12A corridor. Master planning
included public workshops, the development of many traffic routing alternatives,
and traffic analysis to demonstrate the benefits of hinter/frontage road
access to minimize impacts on existing properties and businesses. NHDOT
and community planning is still using ideas and information developed
by the Route 12A Improvement Society through a committee established by the
Governor's Executive Council.
Additionally, our personnel were selected by the City of
Lebanon to develop concepts to improve circulation, pedestrian and vehicular
safety, and parking movements within a parking area located near the Lebanon
community green. This parking area provides the majority of public parking
for a multi-level retail mall, to City Hall, and to the community green.
We also developed a map of the existing facility, created various concepts
to improve parking as well as pedestrian and vehicular circulation, and
the engineering drawings for the selected concept. During the design process
we provided a "turn-key" design and construction package to the City of
Lebanon by preparing the construction plans, specifications and bid documents
for the project, administering the advertisement for bids, reviewing
the bids, awarding the contract, and providing clerk-of-the-works services
to manage the project's construction.
