Share Your Feedback to Help Shape Community Path Safety Improvements

The City has been analyzing feedback and safety issues, how people are using the path and the current conditions of the path. Based on these learnings we have created a list of proposed interventions on the path.


We want to hear from you! There are multiple ways to share your input to help us learn more about your safety concerns and gather feedback on design elements we should implement to enhance safety on the Community Path.

  • Share your ideas through our survey! Take the survey online in English, Español, Português, Kreyòl Ayisyen, नेपाली, 繁體中文, 简体中文. The survey is available until Friday, October 10.
  • Add your comments to our online Public Input Map. Writing your comments on this map will let us know what you see as issues and opportunities in the project area. Use pins to highlight locations that you think are important for us to prioritize for changes or improvements, as well as locations that are currently working well. The map is available until Friday, October 10.
  • Come join us at upcoming street outreach pop-ups to talk to staff in-person, share your ideas, and ask questions. (Flyers available in English, Español, Português, Kreyòl Ayisyen, नेपाली, 繁體中文, 简体中文)
