The City of Columbus is inviting the public to participate in our next round of community engagement for the LinkUS Northwest Corridor initiative. We’ve launched an Online Open House at linkuscolumbus.com/nw-open-house. Public engagement is available now directly through the website, and people can RSVP for one of two virtual webinar sessions next Wednesday, Feb. 10. The online engagement period will remain open through February 19.
We know that many Clintonville residents have an interest in this project and the City would appreciate your assistance in promoting this engagement opportunity to your fellow residents. More information about the Northwest Corridor project is available at linkuscolumbus.com/northwest and in the description below.
Further Information shared by Justin Goodwin, Transportation Planning Manager with the City of Columbus
Over the past several months many community members have shared their thoughts about the future of the Northwest Corridor. Those insights have helped to shape technical analysis of viable and desirable Rapid Transit infrastructure, complete streets improvements, and associated development that promotes the goals of the LinkUS initiative. Through an Online Open House you can now share your feedback on this next phase of work. Please visit linkuscolumbus.com/nw-open-house to learn about progress to date and to answer survey questions.
