City of Charleston Park Department
Located in this district are, Spring & Cannon Streets. These were previously one-way parallel corridors connecting the Cross-town and the Ashley River Bridges to Upper King Street in downtown Charleston. As a traffic calming benefit, the design team proposed converting the traffic pattern from one way to two way. The design team was responsible for public meetings, perspective renderings, preliminary designs, surveys, traffic signalization/control plans, electrical designs, permitting, contract documents/specifications, bidding assistance & construction administration.
The Benefits of two-way conversion:
Less driving
Less confusion
Better traffic access
Eliminates the need to drive blocks and blocks out of the way
No need to make extra turns to get to nearby destination
Drivers can get directly to their destination
Increases commercial traffic and business
Decreases the speed of traffic and awareness of pedestrians
