Residents and other stakeholders were asked to give feedback on the process for narrowing down the wide range of potential projects suggested for the Southwest Corridor Plan and help plan partners determine which solutions should be prioritized over the coming years.
After viewing the open house, participants were asked to provide feedback through a related questionnaire. Public feedback from this online open house helped provide final projects the public would like to see on the wide range of projects list, some suggestions for projects that should be prioritized as early opportunities and inform the screening process.
