The city responds to questions posed by Roswell Patch readers about traffic and transportation in Roswell's Historic District.
Forget four wheels, or even two; Canton Street patrons may soon opt for three if the city passes a text amendment allowing pedicabs to travel through Roswell's historic district. Regarding the possibility of regular trolley use in the historic district, city spokesperson Julie Brechbill told Roswell Patch that it wasn't something Roswell is currently considering, but pedicabs are. "Our legal department is writing a text amendment to take back to mayor and council at the next [Community Development] Committee meeting in December," she said. According to Brechbill, the city's Planning and Zoning Director, Brad Townsend, is working on a possible route for the pedicabs. The move will hopefully invigorate more multi-modal transporation within …

Roswell's historic district is set to undergo some definite improvements in January.
The new year brings new improvements to Canton Street. Roswell Department of Transportation (RDOT) has big plans for the quaint historic district beginning in January.
