Programs
Micromobility Program
The Town of Mount Pleasant recently completed the Mount Pleasant Way Master Plan project (MPW), which developed a proposed network of connected multi-use paths intended for non-motorized users that will link key portions of the Town. In order to support further efforts to expand mobility options and decrease automobile congestion, the Town is establishing new guidance for accommodating micromobility and neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs) in the Town.
Micromobility is defined as small, fully or partially human-powered vehicles. These vehicles may include bicycles, scooters, skateboards, roller skates, self-balancing vehicles or other wheeled devices. NEVs are larger and heavier than most micromobility vehicles. Typical NEVs include golf carts and autonomous low-speed shuttles.

The program currently employs two types traffic calming devices, speed humps and all-way stop controls.

All street signs within the Town are schedule to be replaced and upgraded to meet the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidelines. These signs include but are not limited to street name signs, stop signs, yield signs, speed limit signs, and pedestrian signage.
