About the Plan

The purpose of the Kirkwood Highway Land Use and Transportation Plan is to create an attractive and cohesive plan for the Kirkwood Highway (Route 2) corridor that will integrate land use and transportation in a manner that will accommodate future economic growth along the corridor and position existing businesses to be competitive as changes to the retail business models occur.

The Master Plan will address near-term and long-range solutions and policies with an emphasis on strengthening alternative travel modes and options, travel demand management, integration of coordinated multimodal transportation and land use planning, and promoting more sustainable patterns of development, while maintaining and enhancing existing neighborhood vitality. This master plan will be conducted in partnership with New Castle County Land Use, DelDOT, DTC and key stakeholders.
