The ongoing fluctuation in the cost of fuel contines to keep the issue of transportation on the minds of most people. Those thoughts are the same for Gladstone residents and transportation has long been a topic of importance. Creating streets that are safe and attractive for walking, cycling, and using public transit is a key component for future development. The City is conducting a transportation planning study to help determine and guide the process of identifying the right kinds of transportation needed.
To get things started the City is hosting a public symposium at the Community Center on Tuesday September 11 at 7 p.m. As a part of this symposium the project will be introduced and sustainable transportation principles will be discussed including pedestrian-friendly streets and how they can relate to neighborhood design and placemaking.
Hope to see you there on Tuesday September 11 for this important meeting.
