The Complete Streets plan helps identify projects that could qualify for grant funding, but it excludes projects funded through other sources, including Boston Street, Highland Avenue, and Bridge Street work. A subgroup will develop more detailed feedback, including concerns about accommodating bicycles at the planned Jefferson Avenue and Jackson Street roundabout. The committee also approved moving the bikeshare station at Salem State’s North Campus to Lafayette Street, changing its meeting time to 6:15 p.m., and returning to a hybrid meeting format in August.
