Focus Groups
July 13th, 2010
As part of the public outreach surrounding the master planning process, the Delaware River Waterfront Corporation did four topic-specific focus groups. The topic areas addressed were waterfront business, historical resources, recreational boating and other recreation. Across all four focus groups there was consensus on some broad points including the following.
- There is a strong desire for improved access for pedestrians and bicyclists across Delaware/Columbus and I-95 as well as along the waterfront.
- There is strong support for a continuous path or trail along the waterfront.
- Everyone wants to see more coherent connections between pockets of good development and public spaces.
- There was common support for improved signage to and along the waterfront.
