Share Your Feedback to Help Shape the Somerville Avenue Quick-Build Safety Improvements Project
On Monday, June 9, we hosted our first community meeting on Zoom. Thank you to all who were able to join. During the meeting, we shared background on the project, related plans and ordinances, community engagement strategies, and potential design options. We also heard input and questions from community members regarding safety challenges and possible solutions.
