MAIN STREET – SPATIAL PLAN

The future realignment of the Trans-Canada Highway (TCH) has provided the Town of Cornwall with a unique opportunity to re-imagine the old TCH corridor as a vibrant, functional, safe,
and efficient Main Street in the heart of Cornwall. What once bisected the community (See Figure 2), now presents a chance to stitch the community back together and create a functional
town centre extending from east to west through the town.
Some of the Highway restrictions that limited access along this corridor will be lifted, presenting new opportunities for infill development or even the redevelopment of existing businesses or homes on the corridor. Without the proper planning and visioning for what the corridor could become, there is the very real chance that opportunities could be missed to make the street more walkable, pedestrian and bicycle oriented, better connected to other open space networks in the town and less automobile focused.
With access limitations removed, it will become much easier to develop along the corridor, and so now is the time to develop standards for future development which sets the bar high and
creates a Main Street for Cornwall of the highest quality.
