Deceleration Zone

Dramatic speed limit signage and visual cues to slow down traffic as it enters the village

Streetscape Amenities

Gateways

Architectural Structural features to frame transition zones & encourage controlled speeds. Oaks’ existing historic features, General Store, RR structures etc, should be the basis for the Station Ave gateway Nodes

High-impact visual gateway for drivers carried out with pedestrian-safe boxes at Station and Brower Aves. Colored and textured crosswalks, countdown signals for pedestrians, median refuges, and pedestrian signage for drivers. etc, should be the basis for the Station Ave gateway

Refuge & Planted Medians

Protection, beautification, signage & lighting opportunities. Potential for integrating infiltration measures.
