AI Summary
This bill aims to improve parking and pedestrian safety. It requires the construction of protective parking bollards or other safety appurtenances to separate parking spaces from sidewalks or building frontages in cities and towns where municipal on-street angle or perpendicular parking is provided adjacent to commercial buildings. The bill also establishes a Pedestrian Safety Design Advisory Group to investigate best practices and develop recommendations for rules and regulations governing the installation of these safety measures.
