Hyland-Croy Road Corridor Character Study
As an extension of the Northwest/Glacier Ridge Area Plan, studies are underway to look at specific design aspects and elements of the Hyland Croy Corridor stretching from Post Road to Dublin’s northern boundary. Results of the study will establish basic design parameters for the corridor, including overall visual character, general landscape concepts, streetscape elements, preliminary access management and general road alignment.

Previous Hyland-Croy Road Workshops
Date: July 21, 2009
Planning conducted a third public workshop for the Hyland-Croy Road Corridor Character Study. This workshop was designed to expand on the topics discussed at the two public workshops held in May. Participants were invited to review a collection of photographs illustrating various design options that could be used to address the issues and ideas identified at the previous workshops. Participants were asked to identify the images that best represented appropriate design concepts for different portions of the corridor. Approximately 30 residents within the corridor from both Dublin and Jerome Township attended this workshop.
Twenty posters were presented at the workshop, each including a series of images illustrating different design approaches for topics such as medians, roundabouts, open space treatments, roadside character, pedestrian paths/bikeways, and screening/buffering. Each image poster was accompanied by a feedback poster, which included a map of the corridor divided into six sections (A through F). The feedback posters provided space for participants to place their votes (using green and red dots) for or against each image, and within each of the six corridor sections. Each participant was provided up to six green dots and six red dots for each poster. Participants were permitted to vote for or against multiple images for a single corridor section, but were asked not to place more than one green dot or one red dot for the same image in any particular section. Participants were also invited to provide written comments on each of the poster topics.
Copies of the image posters and feedback posters can be viewed below. Planning is currently reviewing the feedback obtained at the workshop and will use this information to help draft design concepts for future implementation in the corridor.

Date: May 26 & 28, 2009
On May 26 and May 28, Planning conducted two public workshops for the Hyland-Croy Road Corridor Character Study. The workshops were organized by geographic area, with the first focusing on the Post Road to Brand Road portion of the corridor (Workshop A) and the second focusing on the portion between Brand Road and Brock Road (Workshop B). At least 45 residents within the corridor from both Dublin and Jerome Township attended the first meeting and 32 attended the second meeting.
Participants were invited to engage in group discussion at three stations, where they were asked to discuss issues and ideas for the corridor based on one of three perspectives: as a driver, as a pedestrian or cyclist, and as a resident or property owner. At each station, a staff facilitator opened discussion and encouraged participants to engage in a dialogue regarding one of the three perspectives while another staff member recorded the comments on paper. Participants were also encouraged to draw design concepts and write comments on maps of the corridor. The process was repeated at 15-minute intervals so that participants had the opportunity take part in each discussion station. This summary provides a consolidated review of the issues and ideas discussed throughout both workshops. Copies of the original map sheets are available online and scanned copies of the map sheets used to collect public feedback at the workshops will soon be available online. The full-size map sheets used at the workshops will be available for review in Council Chambers prior to the July 1 Council meeting.
You can download smaller versions of the map sheets used at the workshops below. These are 11x17-inch copies of poster-sized maps used to facilitate discussion at the workshop stations. These sheets include photographs of the exiting corridor with an indicator on the map illustrating the general location and field of view shown in the photo. The maps include engineering drawings of planned transportation improvements and renderings of approved development plans overlaid on a 2007 aerial photograph of the corridor.
