should not be provided. A two-lane
roadway provides an increment of
capacity that is far more than ade-
quate for any reasonable projection of
new downtown growth in Nashua.
+ Address Value The design features
of the preferred Parkway — specifi-
cally its accessibility, design speed
and size — should add to the value of
the road as an address. Supporting
Nashua Downtown Master Plan
City policies (zoning, redevelopment Bo
initiatives, etc.) should foster the role
of the road as an armature for new
development.
East/West Street Connection to
Franklin Street A major advantage
of the preferred alternative over the
currently standing Broad Street pro-
posal is the connection to Franklin
Street on the north side of the
Broad Street
Parkway
The preferred
alternative for the
Broad Street Parkway
(left) will provide access
to redevelopment
opportunities, as well as
reduce congestion at
Railroad Square.
