The neighborhoods on 73 are not connected to the new Wright shopping center except by looping down to lower Springboro and then walking all the way back North through all of downtown. From Fieldstone or Richard's Run, a 1/4 mile walk to the new shopping center becomes more than a mile. Would it be possible to make a pedestrian walkway/bridge to connect that sidewalk up to East North Street? Big difference for viable walking distance to visit those shops/restaurants! Thanks!

Village Park Blvd 1 month 3 weeks agoThere was digging done recently on the SW corner of this intersection and the ADA ramp to the curb (not sure of the official name) was put back without it being flush. It is a tripping hazard and would certainly cause problems for someone in a wheelchair.

Folks east of clearcreek Franklin rd and south of Pennyroyal rd do not have safe walking access to North Park or commercial businesses along State Route #73. The expansion of the green way along Twin Creek out to the dead end of Evergreen Rd. with a foot/bike path from Evergreen to 73 would be great. In addition, a safe path from Whispering Pines to North Park would enable folks to get to North Park safely

11294 Springboro Pike 1 month 3 weeks agoThis portion of sidewalk (East side of northbound 741) has been closed for months. There is no sidewalk on the West side so the only alternative for a walker/runner is to run in the bike lane. Is there any plan to complete the sidewalk from Remick to Pennyroyal on the west side in front of the Kettering Health Center? This would allow walkers to do a loop including Gardner Park without crossing 741, thus avoiding run-ins with cars.

99 Remick Blvd 1 month 3 weeks agoAbout 2 years ago, a city newsletter stated that a crosswalk would be painted at the intersection of Remick and Blackford in front of the Coffman YMCA. This intersection is heavily used by residents of the surrounding areas, both runners and walkers. Since we should be encouraging people to walk instead of driving when they can, it would be nice to provide them a safer route across Remick, especially since speeding on Remick is an epidemic. I have almost been hit at that intersection twice by cars pulling onto Remick from the road to the Y because the drivers were either on their phones or just didn't look. Each time I was well into the intersection when this occurred, it was broad daylight, and I had already been standing on the sidewalk for some time waiting for a break in traffic. My husband was almost hit there last week by a woman who was texting as she pulled out from the Y road to make a left onto Remick and never looked up from her phone. I would really like to see the city follow through on their promise to create a crosswalk here. Thanks.

6392 Springboro Rd 1 month 2 weeks agoSpringboro Road is used by many recreational cyclists as a scenic, low-traffic route in and out of Springboro. Traffic will be increasing along this road as a result of the new development being built here. There should be some planning to help keep this route safe for cyclists.

619 Pleasant Valley Dr 1 month 3 weeks agoIf Pleasant Valley could connect with Market St ,through Community Park perhaps it would make a nice East to West route, connecting pedestrians with the businesses West of Pioneer. A second option for this could be Factory Rd. connect to Pleasant Valley, I currently cut through the new Victory truck dock area and poke thru the tree line to Pioneer.

I like this idea. Not sure if implementable, but I really do like it. Good connector for walking/biking to downtown Springboro events.

Focus efforts inside city limits. Regional connectivity is nice, but not the responsibility of Springboro motorists or taxpayers.

I work close by and me and my 2 grandkids and son travel to ride bmx parks having a park locally would be great for all the kids in the areas to learn new things and it doesn’t cost anything to get fit. With the other bike lanes and push in Springboro currently this would be a great thing.

A pump track in the city would be awesome. They are very popular with youths to adults like myself. I would definitely become a regular and bring the kids!

I would absolutely love to see this in such a great location. Kids from all around Springboro can come here and advance their skills on a bike while getting away from video games and tv. It is such a simple design and a great way to have kids and parents both learning and having fun together and as a family. It would make the community come together and help kids make new friends with the same interests. I hope this will be implemented am see what comes from it.

I am in this area everyday; The 45 mph Township section between the cemetery to Factory Rd is very scenic but not safe for cycling in my opinion. Factory Rd. is my choice to pedal from Main St to Milo Beck park and beyond. I also think the east bound climb from Clearcreek park to Milo Beck park can be unsafe, be nice to have a paved trail connecting these parks or at least to get you up out of Clearcreek park to Pioneer Blvd perhaps.

Existing topography (hills on either side) seems favorable for a pedestrian/bikeway bridge over SR73 as part of a connector trail.

We live at 1793 Sandy Ct, if a path of any type is planned to go through our lot please consider it going somewhere else. We do not want a path of any type going by our house. We chose this house because of the relative seclusion a cul de sac offers. Thanks Keith

Please do a better job of educating motorists of their legal obligations as it pertains to cyclists and pedestrians. Visible police enforcement would send a strong message.

I would appreciate having walking trail that is easier on arthritis sufferers. Originally, North Park had mulch instead of blacktop. There are many baby boomers now that I think would love to be out walking the paths again, but the blacktop is tough on our joints. Mulch or the rubbery compound used in some playgrounds might work? If just one of our parks had that, I would certainly use it. Thanks, Bev Dean
