Report Executive Summary
With the adoption of the Midtown Specific Plan in March 2002, the City of Milpitas is experiencing substantial residential development activity along the S. Main Street and S. Abel Street corridors between Great Mall Parkway and Montague Expressway. The existing industrial and commercial land use sites were rezoned to Residential and Mixed-Use Land Uses with the adoption of the Midtown Specific Plan and landowners and developers are implementing the Plan. This development activity also introduces opportunities for the City to control and enhance the corridor.
The Midtown Specific Plan identifies specific corridors appropriate for Median Island and Streetscape enhancements to address aesthetics, safety and quality of life, but S. Main Street and S. Abel Street between Great Mall Parkway and Montague Expressway are not included on that list. Because of the high development activity in that corridor, the City of Milpitas commissioned the development of this Plan Line Study to identify the appropriate median island configurations and streetscape enhancements appropriate to help identify driveway locations and access control type for proposed developments and to beautify the corridor as redevelopment continues.
