ATCs are comfortable, “people only” paths that connect streets to parks, schools and other streets, shortening trips for people traveling by active travel modes.
Transitioning people from houselessness to permanent housing requires a continuum of options. Microshelters are intended to assist community members who do not currently have stable housing but are able to live in a more independent, distributed shelter environment. Social services providers have advocated for microshelters as a powerful tool for addressing the challenges of homelessness.
This is the first step in a larger project and will focus on examining potential path alignments and selecting one that is the best fit, given the constraints of right-of-way and environmental complexities.
