Comments for “Portsmouth Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan”
-
Build off road path to Heritage Ave
-
Woodbury/Market intersection - too difficult to bike through from Woodbury - seek alternative route around Osprey Landing
-
Wide shoulder northbound and fewer intersections. Southbound - ramps and minimal shoulder, catchbasins. Also headed downhill with uneven pavement.
-
St Pat's easement connection to Bansfield
-
Challenge riding on South St - narrow
-
Franklin School parking lot cut through is a good alt route. Option to formalize? Hours of operation?
-
Access Market Basket from back via Osprey Landing
-
Alternate route to Gosling Rd from points south is Durgin Ln (avoids most of Woodbury Ave)
-
Need parking for Rail Trail
-
Bike on Islington to get to HBT
-
Use Lincoln Ave to bike to downtown Hannaford
-
1A - challenge (south of South St) -- traffic calming
-
Banfield Rd - narrow and wetlands constrained
-
Hard / avoid walking and biking on Middle Rd and Greenland Rd
-
Left turns onto Middle St and Islington St from Cass St challenging. Cass is a good neighborhood connection to Borthwick and hospital.

-
Kids biking in middle of street because of parking on both sides. Alternate parking?
-
Add sidewalks on Heritage Ave
-
On rail trail, add benches, rest areas, parking, amenities
-
Biking from West End around Papa Wheelies into town is challenging, especially with kids
-
Left onto Middle St is difficult
-
Cate St Connector - make Bike/Ped friendly, dedicated path or improvements
-
Summer bike traffic from South Rt 1 to downtown (commuter) for seasonal employees
-
This is such a weird road for such a lovely town - it's hideous, completely hostile to pedestrians and bikes (even though there is a bike route at the bridge and on market st.) and full of sex shops and gas stations. It's so close to town it seems crazy we don't make it a more welcoming corridor.

There are between 4 and 8 car lanes through here and no space for bikes. There is also no continuation of the sidewalk from Gosling Meadows to the West to Pease, even if using the crosswalk.
