Downtown Dayton & Shopping Local
The City of Dayton and MainStreet Dayton will be implementing stop signs at all downtown intersections to replace the outdated traffic lights. After thorough traffic studies and TDOT advisory, this decision prioritizes pedestrian safety and will help slow traffic. We encourage drivers to take this opportunity to enjoy the local shops and the beauty of our downtown area. Thank you for your cooperation in making Downtown Dayton safer and more enjoyable for everyone.
Shopping local is more important than ever. When you choose to support downtown businesses, you invest in the community, boost the local economy, and help create jobs. Local shops offer unique products and personalized service that big chains can't match. Thank you for making a difference!
