Take the Grand Street Pilot survey by tomorrow night; Early voting has begun; Gateway test blasting delayed
Grand Street Complete Streets Pilot survey closes tomorrow
Residents are reminded to provide their input on the Grand Street Complete Streets Pilot by filling out the community survey, which closes tomorrow, Tuesday, Oct. 27 at 11:59 p.m.
The survey invites residents, business owners, and anyone who travels along Grand Street to share their experiences using the street during the pilot, including its safety improvements, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, parking, and curbside management. The survey will be used by the Department of Transportation & Parking to help prepare a final evaluation of the pilot that will be published by November.
Community feedback gathered through the survey will be considered alongside other data collected throughout the pilot period to help the City evaluate the current design and develop recommendations for potential changes to the street’s current configuration.
To take the Grand Street survey, go to https://arcg.is/8Hree1
Community members who have questions or want to provide additional feedback may contact the City at [email protected].
