City, CSU host West Elizabeth transportation focus group

The City of Fort Collins and CSU are hosting a focus group discussion about future alternative transportation on West Elizabeth Street. The discussion will help develop the vision for the West Elizabeth Enhanced Travel Corridor Plan.

The focus group meeting is from 12:30-2 p.m. on Wednesday, July 8 in the Lory Student Center Grey Rock Room. A light lunch is provided.

The West Elizabeth corridor has been identified by the city as part of a citywide network of Enhanced Travel Corridors – uniquely designed corridors with an emphasis on high-frequency transit, bicycling and walking. The West Elizabeth plan will develop a long-term vision for the corridor based on an understanding of the transportation, land use, environmental, economic and social needs of the area.west eliz corridor map

The corridor master plan focuses on West Elizabeth Street from Overland Trail to Shields Street, with an eye towards connectivity to CSU’s Foothills Campus on the west, and CSU’s Main Campus on the east.

Registration is limited. RSVP to Emma Belmont at ebelmont@fcgov.com or (970) 224-6197 by July 6.
