Project Connect anticipates 30 percent design milestone
Tuesday, April 5, 2022 by Tai Moses
By this summer, Project Connect is expected to attain the milestone of 30 percent design. Two community meetings held last week revealed more details on the design of the Orange and Blue lines. Those who missed the meeting may review the materials on a virtual open house through April 29 that is split into four themes: connectivity; traffic and transportation; environmental review and anti-displacement strategies; and investments. A virtual working group meeting on Wednesday, April 6, will focus on the Orange Line and South Congress Avenue, and a workshop on Monday, April 11, hosted by Council members Leslie Pool and Chito Vela, will focus on Crestview Station.
