Dan Burden, a nationally recognized consultant on how to make cities more walkable/bikeable evaluated some of Fairhope's streets and intersections recently and presented results to interested citizens at the civic center afterward.
Fairhope resident and Smart Coast co-founder Charlene Lee made some comments folllowing Burden's presentation.
When asked by a Times reporter to give Fairhope a grade, Burden replied; "Very good, for those streets I saw." Burden concentrated mostly on recently-paved downtown area streets that have yet to be striped.
Lee said she hoped the city would work to adopt Burden's "complete streets" principles city-wide.
