INTR ODUCTION US 29, also known as Lawrenceville Highway, is one of the Atlanta metro region’s most heavily traveled corridors and one of the nation’s oldest highways. Originally conceived in the 1920s, US 29 extends from Pensacola, Florida, to the western suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland. In Georgia region, US 29 parallels a CSX rail line from West Point in far western Georgia into downtown Atlanta. Eventually US 29 makes its way north and eastward through Decatur, Tucker, Lilburn, Lawrenceville and onward to Athens. Depending on its local context, US 29 has a variety of different appearances; however, it is always an automobile-dominated corridor that at times is an economic incubator and simultaneously a barrier to community development.

AREA CONTEX T US 29 is a five lane highway bordered by a mix of large scale retail stores, mature “mom and pop” stores, schools, and most recently a new City Hall and Library. Until this latest development, many of these retails centers have seen little redevelopment and available retail space remains high. The eclectic mix of uses is complemented by a wide variety of street elements, most notably a plethora of signage that makes it difficult to distinguish one business from another. These signs are catering to the large amount of vehicular users, which treat US 29 as a thoroughfare and not a destination. Because this is also the corridor where road names change, US 29 is seen as not only a physical barrier but

Like the many other communities it travels through, US 29 plays a major role in the continued growth and development of Lilburn. Lawrenceville Highway is also the corridor that the Lilburn Community Improvement District (LCID) is charged with creating opportunities for economic prosperity. A large portion of their geographic boundaries are heavily commercial and institutional dividing the community in half. This study focuses on the four mile long portion of the corridor from Rockbridge Road north to Ronald Reagan Parkway. Both the CID and the City of Lilburn envision this stretch of the highway as an opportunity to strengthen the economic sustainability of the community and provide a lasting image and gateway into the heart of downtown Lilburn. Whereas previous studies focused on large-scaled issues such as land use, mobility, and real estate, this current study, accurately dubbed “Design 29” focuses on the public realm components and infrastructure that are necessary for great placemaking.

a psychological barrier that divides the community. Recent efforts by the City and Gwinnett County have improved pedestrian safety and mobility along the corridor, one of its many criticisms. Despite these improvements, few pedestrians venture along US 29 because it is not an inviting place. Although currently seen as a barrier, the high amount of vehicular traffic provides opportunities to capture these trips into nearby commercial developments and into downtown Lilburn. As such, Lawrenceville Highway can be the face of the community that helps distinguish Lilburn from surrounding cities.

INTR ODUCTION PRE VIOUS S TUDIES Design 29 is an outgrowth of the 2011 Boulevard of Opportunity Corridor Study that was modeled after the Atlanta Regional Commission Livable Centers Initiative (LCI) program. This original study looked at creating a model on how to re-market, re-imagine, and re-invigorate a portion of the community through the transformation of an auto-dominated street into a prestigious corridor. The original study included community engagement, a market analysis, and recommendations for development, transportation improvements, and aesthetic enhancements.

More recently, the Lilburn CID commissioned another study known as the US 29 Access Management Plan. Like Design 29 and the Boulevard of Opportunity study, the Access Management Plan focused on the four mile section of the corridor between Rockbridge Road and Ronald Reagan Parkway. The 2013 report identified 27 projects that would improve mobility and safety for transit, automobiles, pedestrians, and bicyclists. No funding sources were identified for the projects, however it was the intent of Lilburn CID and the City to fund the identified projects through the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) and other grants.

L AND USE The two primary uses along the corridor are commercial and public/institutional. Much of the available commercial space is divided up among small out parcels and larger consolidated lots with a number of vacant storefronts. Interparcel access is rare and something that was heavily emphasized in the Access Management Plan.

DESIGN

There are six different institutional/public facilities along the corridor: BAPS Hindu Mosque, Lilburn Elementary School, Lilburn Middle School, Providence Christian Academy, Berkmar Middle School, Berkmar High School, and the new County Library/City Hall complex. In addition there is one regional park and two cemeteries.

TYPICAL CROSS-SECTIONS

BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES

Lawrenceville Highway is a four-lane highway with a continuous central turn lane. Dedicated right turn lanes exist at frequent intervals along the corridor. The cross section changes north of Beaver Ruin Road/ Arcado Road where a raised concrete median replaces the center turn lane. Portions of this median are wide enough to include plant material. The raised median has helped to control traffic in the most heavily traveled part of the corridor. Behind the curb is a consistent 5-foot wide sidewalk throughout the majority of the project area. Due to the land use, setbacks are large along the corridor (in many places) allowing for ample room for expanded public infrastructure amenities and uses.

Recent improvements to US 29 have made the corridor entirely accessible the length of the project along both sides of the corridor. This has made the corridor more accessible, yet many of the sidewalks are located closely behind the back of curb so pedestrians are still close enough to vehicular traffic to make it an uncomfortable experience. There are currently no bicycle facilities along the corridor, however to the south and east is the Camp Creek Greenway which currently extends from the intersection of Killian Hill Road and Poplar Street south to Lions Club Park. There are plans to expand the greenway further in both directions as funding becomes available.

INTERSECTIONS Business owners along the corridor and residents have identified pedestrian improvements as vital to longterm enhancements along the corridor. There are six signalized intersections along the corridor and all play a role in helping to create a distinctive place along the corridor. As previously mentioned, improvements have been made to improve the mobility and safety of the intersections. With the exception of a planned open space amenity at Pleasant Hill Road, the intersections lack distinction and several are bordered by property ripe for redevelopment.

TRANSIT LOCATIONS Gwinnett County Transit has a local service (Route 30) that runs southbound along US 29 within the project area. There are 14 stops within the project area for Route 30 which provides Weekday Service only.

LAWRENCEVILLE HIGHWAY u r b a n d e s i g n i m p l e m e n t a t i o n s t u d y

DRAFT

Two trails are being planned/engineered within the project area. The most advanced project is a 10’-wide multi-use trail along the east side of US 29 running from the Post Office south to near the intersection of Johns Road. A second trail is being planned along Indian Trail Road/ Killian Hill Road from Norcross to Lilburn. This project is currently undergoing programming and preliminary design via Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) funding. It is a coordinated effort between Gwinnett Place CID and Gwinnett County. There is no timeline for construction of this project. In summary, the 2011 Boulevard of Opportunity Plan created a preliminary plan for trails. This was validated and refined as part of this study.


ISSUES LACK OF IDENTITY Currently US 29 has the look and feel of a typical suburban corridor with strip commercial development. With the exception of the Hindu Temple there are landmarks along the corridor with no visual queues that a driver (or pedestrian) is entering the City of Lilburn and a corridor maintained by Lilburn CID. Large setbacks and vacant storefronts challenge redevelopment opportunities. There is no design narrative or “story� for Lawrenceville Highway now. As such people only envision it as a thoroughfare versus a destination.

INCONSISTENCY ALONG THE CORRIDOR Lack of signage hierarchy

Where developments have occurred there is inconsistency in design. One prominent example is the various of pedestrian lighting that exists in front of the Hindu Temple compared to lighting near the Chick-Fil-A at Killian Hill Road. These inconsistencies are a lost opportunity to brand the corridor through consistent elements such as benches, pavements, signage, wayfinding, and lighting.

Current entrance sign gets lost in the clutter

CONFUSING SIGNAGE

Typical suburban corridor

One thing that US 29 does have is signage. This signage comes in all forms and sizes from temporary, yard signs, to dated monument signs that have been grandfathered in over time. The City of Lilburn actually has constructed a monument sign but it has to compete with its surroundings and its ultimately lost to the eye of a driver or walker.

OPP OR TUNITIES EDUCATIONAL AND INSTITUTIONAL CAMPUSES Lawrenceville Highway is home to several educational and institutional facilities. These include schools, a library, a city hall, and park space. Linking these elements both aesthetically and physically can help to “connect” places that already exist, strengthening the infrastructure of the community. US 29 is a “civic corridor.”

AREAS OF NICE LANDSCAPING

Image from http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1172/1439073967_a24bbdc398.jpg

There are portions of the corridor such as the location of the new City Hall and Library and Providence Christian Academy where nice landscaping exists and offers a pleasant change to the significant amount of asphalt. These are locations where plant material has replaced asphalt. There are a number of unused parcels and large setbacks that could be transformed. Because of the large amounts of hardscape, pedestrians are less likely to use the corridor on hot days because there are no areas of relief and few street trees.

OPP OR TUNITIES INVESTMENT IN DOWNTOWN

REVITALIZATION OF UNDERUSED BUSINESSES

There is a nexus of development happening along Main Street into downtown Lilburn. These improvements (which include the greatly anticipated City Hall and Library) have helped spur other private development. This location near the Chick-Fil-A (which is anecdotally seen as a landmark) helps form the basis for redevelopment and a new identity.

There are a large number of undeveloped and vacant complexes along the corridor. Building upon the new development around City Hall, there are opportunities to attract developers to contribute to the revitalization of the corridor. Using public infrastructure improvements is one way to begin attracting the new development.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROJECT MANAGEMENT TEAM

PUBLIC MEETING TWO

PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE

A project management team consisting of representatives from the City of Lilburn, Lilburn CID, Gwinnett County, and local stakeholders met periodically to review the status of the project. They provided needed feedback and helped to advocate for the project within the broader community. Additionally, three public meetings were held to seek feedback from the community.

Workshop Two was held on February 23, 2015, at Providence Christian Academy. The focus of this meeting was to seek feedback about more specific ideas including streetscape design, branding, and image preferences.

The final open house was held on April 15, 2015, at Providence Christian Academy. Attendees were given the opportunity to review a draft of the final product list and vote on their preferred projects.

PUBLIC MEETING ONE Workshop One was held on November 6, 2014, at Providence Christian Academy. Participants engaged in interactive polling, used a program called StreetMix to design the US 29 corridor, and engaged in discussions surrounding placemaking.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ONLINE ENGAGEMENT

Recognizing the need to create a finite list with the potential for achievable results, a series of three criteria were established to evaluate the projects.

In order to reach the maximum amount of people, the project team created an interactive online website. Using this website, community members could read workshop recaps, ask questions of the project team, and participate in surveys and questionnaires about the US 29 corridor. Below is a summary of the online participation.

Both the Lilburn CID and the City have finite resources. Grants are one of the many ways to fund initiatives. Singular projects were capped at $3 million dollars, which allowed for a maximum local match to equal $500,000 (pursuant to a 20% requirement for a sponsorship match). Future funding sources were considered when determining this amount.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT To make physical improvements to the entire corridor would be a costly project that would involve millions of dollars and time. Because limited funds are available and the corridor is already partially developed, projects were identified that could return a higher yield on investment. This was a qualitative approach that focused on improvements that directly impacted the corridor along with the stated requests from residents. Projects that would spur private development and redevelopment were considered higher priority.

TIMELINE The plan focused on a seven year time frame. Projects that were considered too long term AND costly were left off of the proposed improvements list.

A more detailed recap of the community engagement can be found in the appendices.

STUDY AREAS NARROWED FOCUS An important element of this urban design study was to identify specific opportunities to enhance placemaking along the corridor. The following recommendations arose out of a unified vision from the community and stakeholders of the Lilburn CID. This vision was developed through extensive community input and continual refinement. The following projects represent the outcome of this public engagement and have been developed to the detail possible for a conceptual plan including size, scope, and estimated cost.

The 17 projects on the following pages have been arranged into three sub-areas: trails, intersection improvements, and streetscape enhancements. Each page contains a brief description of a single improvement project. One thing that bears emphasizing – these projects have not yet been vetted for final design. Their value lies in their ability to identify visions and ideas for specific areas along US 29. The details of these projects will change as they move forward, but it is the clear vision that will endure and drive these projects to success. Example of sidewalk improvements

TRAILS

The eight trails outlined in this next section will allow Lilburn to expand its bicycle and pedestrian network. If all eight of these trails are completed, it will add nearly nine miles of trails to the Lilburn community, connecting key parks, institutions and areas of interest. These trails are either greenway trails, meaning that they pass through natural areas, or urban trails that are adjacent to roadways.

INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS

The five intersections highlighted within this next section are the major gateways into the Lilburn CID. Through the public engagement process, specific improvements are recommended for each intersection. The range of improvements represents a myriad of physical conditions including topography, existing buildings and land use, available land, and the prominence of the gateway. Rockbridge and Ronald Reagan emerged as the major gateways into the corridor, and represent the ‘front door’ of the Lilburn community. The other three intersections are also key entrances, but more emphasis is placed on enhancing the pedestrian connection and signage. Together, these improvements create landmarks along Lawrenceville Highway that separates Lilburn as a unique place.

STREETSCAPE ENHANCEMENTS

The four concepts in this section focus on improvements to the streetscape directly around downtown Lilburn. Improving the medians creates a visual ‘narrowing’ of the road as Lawrenceville Highway approaches Main Street from both directions. Creating a better pedestrian environment through streetscape improvements makes Lawrenceville Highway a more walkable place, and begins to connect all of the investments that are occurring in downtown Lilburn. The urban park demonstration project will be a pilot for reusing under-performing parking lots, showing a tactical, low cost solution for retrofitting a surplus of asphalt. The proposed intersection provides a key connection from the new City Hall complex across Lawrenceville Highway, and reestablishes the grid framework in downtown Lilburn.

Corridor Overlay District’ by providing specific elements to the quality and aesthetic of the corridor. The following recommendations resulted from extensive public input, and represent an accurate assessment of the types of improvements the community would like to see.

The purpose of the urban design guidelines is to create a consistent image and identity for the Lilburn CID. They will help to create a sense of place within the activity centers along US 29, focus wayfinding at intersections and major destinations, and improve pedestrian and bicycle comfort and enjoyment along the corridor. These guidelines should serve as a supplement to the existing ‘Lawrenceville Highway

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE ENTRANCE FEATURE US 29 is the ‘front door’ into Lilburn, and an entrance feature provides a visual cues that alerts travelers that they are in a unique place. As the first thing that people see when entering into the community, entrance signs and monuments help announce a place and set the tone for the arrival experience. For the Lilburn CID, a vertical entrance monument is preferred for greater visibility from faster moving vehicles. This monument(s) should be placed at a prominent intersection at the edge of the CID. One recommended location for the entrance feature is the south west corner of US 29 and Ronald Reagan Parkway.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE CROSSWALK DESIGN Pedestrian crossings are defined as the point where the pedestrian path of travel crosses the motorist’s path of travel. While the large intersections along US 29 are outfitted with pedestrian signals and crosswalks, the continuous right turn slip lanes prove challenging for pedestrians and cyclists. One way to remedy this is providing raised crosswalks across the slip lanes. The raised crosswalks encourage drivers to yield to pedestrians, and also reduce vehicle speeds as they turn. Another solution is a change in pavement color and texture, which provides a visual cue to drivers.

Public artwork also creates a sense of expectation and arrival, announcing the presence of a place. Strategically placed public art will distinguish Lilburn from other towns along the US 29 corridor. Unique art elements will aid Lilburn in becoming a destination along the corridor.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE LANDSCAPING One of the most cost effective ways to beautify a highway is through landscaping. A consistent plant palette along the entire corridor is a powerful tool in defining the edges of the community improvement district. Medians should be landscaped in a similar design, preferably with low maintenance and drought tolerant wildflowers. Street trees should be large enough to give shade and enclosure to the street, while maintaining visibility for motorists and businesses. A small selection of trees will prove resistance to disease resistance but maintain visual consistency. A mixture of ornamental plants, shrubs, and trees at intersections can create a backdrop for entrance and wayfinding signage, while simultaneously shielding parking lots and utilities.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE PUBLIC SPACES

Public park in Dallas, Texas

Public spaces are the anchors of civic life, and a place where all members of a community can gather. The most successful public spaces are surrounded by a diversity of uses, and located in areas where they are easily accessible by cars, bicycles, and pedestrians. The auto-dominated nature of US 29 makes this level of public space difficult to achieve; however, the design should accommodate for pedestrian spaces. Many intersections along the corridor contain enough space for a small park or a plaza. Underused parking lots can be turned into temporary parks and recreational spaces. This reuse and reallocation of existing space has a dual purpose of creating public space while also creating a more aesthetically pleasing corridor.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE SIGNS AND WAYFINDING A complete signage and wayfinding package for the Lilburn CID would include directional signage to the town center, educational institutions, and parks, as well as street and city signs at intersections that announce presence into Lilburn. This branding can include signage, landscaping, and architectural features at key intersections to announce arrival into Lilburn. In addition to the existing sign ordinance that regulates signs for private businesses, Lilburn also needs a comprehensive signage and wayfinding system for the CID as a whole. This includes directional signage to the town center, educational institutions, and parks, as well as street and city signs at intersections that announce presence into Lilburn. This branding can include signage, landscaping, and architectural features at key intersections to announce arrival into Lilburn. The signage should reflect a historic and traditional sense of place that is not currently acknowledged along Lawrenceville Highway.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE MATERIALS AND PAVING Traditional streetscape materials should be used within the corridor to maintain the character of Lilburn. In the town center as well as at major intersections, the sidewalk should be either brick or concrete pavers. This can transition to a brick lined concrete sidewalk throughout the remainder of the corridor, which maintains an urban aesthetic while cutting down on the total cost.

GUI DELINES FOR PUBLIC INFRASTR UCTURE STREET FURNITURE Street furniture includes street lights, benches, trash receptacles, and bollards that are placed in the public right-of-way. A street furniture standard should require minimal maintenance, and be functional and durable. Powder coated iron furniture is recommended for the intersections and public spaces; it is attractive while remaining functional and low maintenance.

Example trash receptacle

The current pedestrian street lights along US 29 are inconsistent, which detracts from the image of a continuous corridor. Recommendations include adopting the current street light along Main Street as a standard pedestrian fixture. Implementing this one style will create visual continuity within the Lilburn CID.

IMPLEMENTATION ACTION PL AN PROJECT GUIDE

Intersections - The five intersection improvements proposed are major gateways into the Lilburn CID area that will improve the corridor’s unique identity. Rockbridge and Ronald Reagan are major gateways into the corridor, and represent the ‘front door’ of the Lilburn community. The other three intersections are also key entrances, but their improvement places more emphasis on enhancing pedestrian connections and signage.

The community of Lilburn is seeking funding for several projects along the Lawrenceville Highway (US 29) Corridor intended to improve the appearance and identity of the corridor and to improve the mobility of and recreational opportunities for bicyclists and pedestrians. As part of this improvement to the corridor, 19 projects are proposed that can be grouped into urban and greenway trails, intersections, and streetscapes.

Streetscape Enhancements - The proposed corridor enhancements improve the streetscape around downtown Lilburn; creating a better, more comfortable pedestrian environment that should encourage walking. There are also components of the projects that help calm traffic and support the access management objectives of the community.

Trails - When built, the ten trails proposed will connect key parks, schools, churches, and other institutions, businesses, and other areas of interest. These trails will add nearly nine miles to Lilburn’s bicycle and pedestrian network as either greenway trails, meaning that they pass through natural areas, or urban trails that are adjacent to roadways.

DESIGN

PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS

Each of the projects was compared to a variety of federal, state, local, and private funding sources. For each project, one or two primary funding sources was identified as well as secondary and matching funding sources (see table). The various funding sources are discussed later in this document and are the sources with the best fits with each project’s scope. With the shortage of infrastructure funding at all levels of government, project sponsors should anticipate the necessity of assembling a basket of funding sources to accomplish these projects either in an incremental or bundling approach, depending on the project. Capital Partnerships suggests the community review and apply for all traditional public dollars listed below while organizing a strategy to seek private foundation dollars, where appropriate, at the same time. As projects become more developed, with greater definition, there will likely be more funding options to consider.
