The Transportation & Mobility Plan draft is the result of a year of extensive community engagement, including a citywide survey, pop-up events at community centers, and other activities designed to gather feedback on the City’s streets and sidewalks. These efforts were crucial in shaping the plan’s goals and priorities, ensuring that the vision and hopes of St. Louis residents are at the heart of the City’s future transportation and mobility infrastructure.

“These open houses are a celebration of community vision,” said City of St. Louis Complete Streets Program Manager Scott Ogilvie. “The Transportation & Mobility Plan reflects voices from across the city, and the community’s priorities will shape future mobility investments in our city.”

The same information will be available at both open houses, so residents are welcome to attend the location and time most convenient for them.
