Uptown Public Realm Strategy

In trying to figure out which one way is the right way if you were to remove one direction from Willis Way, I had to also ask myself what purpose this street serves. I think most of its raison d'être is access to parking.

But also, reading the document, I don't see where it recommends making Willis Way into a one-way street. It calls it a "shared street". There is "consideration ... as a potential candidate for one way movement in the up-coming Transportation Master Plan Update". So I think the reporting jumps the gun on this issue.

It could have been mentioned verbally in the presentation.  Although a shared street would tend to contradict the idea of one-way traffic, as restricting to one-way would give plenty of space not to share the street.
