Have thoughts about parking in Rehoboth Beach? Now's your chance to tell the city

Rehoboth Beach is asking residents and nonresidents alike to complete a traffic and parking survey to help inform any needed changes and improvements.

The survey is part of the city's ongoing traffic and parking study and is designed to determine several things: priorities for space allocation, congestion concerns and the general level of comfort for walking and biking downtown.

Downtown Rehoboth Beach has limited capacity, with conflicting and competing uses vying for space, according to a city news release on the subject. Those uses include traffic lanes, parking for numerous types of vehicles, sidewalks and pedestrian areas, amenities, open space and more.

They all contribute to congestion, which the city is hoping to address in the near future.

Engineering and planning consultant Rossi Group is conducting the traffic and parking study, at the conclusion of which they will "offer realistic goals and actions to improve the traffic/parking experience in Rehoboth Beach," according to the city website.

You can take the survey on the city's Reach Out Rehoboth website after registering. It consists of 11 questions, but you can also leave comments. It's open until Nov. 26.

The survey's results will be shared with the city commissioners during a Dec. 4 workshop meeting, and the study's final report is expected in spring 2024.
