Killbuck Streetscape and Trail Connection

Project Goal

The Main Street streetscape includes gateway features, improved intersection safety, on-street parking, consistent dark-sky-compliant street lighting, and pedestrian amenities (seating, street trees, bike racks, e-bike charging stations, and trash receptacles). The streetscape improvements support local businesses by creating new public space that links Killbuck Creek and the Holmes County Trail.

Trail Network

The proposed trail network connects Downtown Killbuck to the Holmes County Trail and natural assets, including Killbuck Land Trust - Turtle Pond Preserve. The proposed multi-purpose 10-foot paths are organized into the Main Street Trail and Front Street Trail. The proposed trail connections can help transform Killbuck into an ecotourism destination for bikers, joggers, birders, and the Amish population.
