The City of Sumner adopted the Town Center Plan in 2018 allowing for redevelopment of properties in and adjacent to the historical Sumner downtown corridor. To provide public services in accordance with that plan the City seeks to upgrade road, sidewalk, storm drainage, sanitary sewer, and domestic water facilities within and adjacent to Alder Avenue and Kincaid Avenue between Main Street and Park Street.
In addition, the City of Sumner has secured grant funding for the delineation of a bike route between the Sumner Sound Transit Station and Wood Avenue. The project will involve the reconstruction of curbs, sidewalks, signage, street striping, and utilities to accommodate the bike lanes.
In 2021, the City of Sumner adopted the Main Street Visioning Plan. This plan captured the community's vision that eventally led to the inclusion of the woonerfs around Heritage Park (Cherry Avenue and Kincaid Avenue between Main St and Maple Street) in this project.
