Building a Better City
Carmel Link 2.0 is an ongoing infrastructure improvement program that consists of the construction of roundabout intersections and storm water management and drainage projects, street and pathway improvements, utility and transmission line updates, bridge work and various other improvement projects that are all designed for compatibility with the environment; aesthetics, easier access for pedestrians and bicyclists and to improve the overall safety and the quality of life for all of its citizens.
Roundabout Construction and Improvements
Carmel builds roundabouts because of their proven safety record; compatibility with the environment; aesthetics, and ability to make it easier for pedestrians and bicyclists. Roundabouts reduce injury accidents by about 80% and accidents overall by about 40%.
Storm Water and Drainage Improvements
The storm water and drainage projects included in Carmel Link 2.0 are designed to maintain existing storm water infrastructure, construct new infrastructure, address localized drainage issues, and reduce waterway pollution.
Street and Pathway Improvements
Widening and reconstruction of streets creates less congestion, a more responsible impact on the environment, greater aesthetic appeal and increased safety. By adding more bicycle friendly multi-use paths, Carmel encourages citizens to walk, jog, and run.
Additional Infrastructure Improvements
Carmel is committed to continually improving infrastructure that has a positive impact on our neighborhoods, businesses and institutions and that will ultimately result in the improvement of the quality of life for all of its citizens.
