The Groton 2036 Ten-Year Vision lays out a phased Main Street and Town Center mobility program from 2026–2036, including conceptual design, full corridor design, and eventual construction. The plan calls for intersection upgrades, sidewalk and accessibility improvements, stormwater and infrastructure upgrades, burying Main Street powerlines, and a corridor-wide streetscape project, with MassWorks and other funding sources identified for later phases. The implementation schedule anticipates design work in years 1–4, funding and advanced design in year 5, construction in years 6–8, and long-term corridor work including powerline burial and infill development in years 8–10.This is still in the planning stage, with the Select Board being asked to form a 2036 Vision Working Group as the cross-department implementation body. Vendors in transportation engineering, urban design, undergrounding utilities, stormwater, and construction management can position now for upcoming design RFPs, funding applications, and phased build-out support.

Vision funded in 2024 with $25000 from Rural Development Fund and $50000 from MA Downtown Initiative; professionals already engaged for early planning include a planner/architect, traffic engineer, and economist.
