Open House for Transportation Plan Update

Open House for Transportation Plan Update
Posted on 09/10/2024
Open HouseThe public is invited to attend an in-person Open House to learn about what will be included in the new Draft Transportation Plan, an important element of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, September 18th from 6pm to 7:30pm in the Plaza Conference Room above the Edmonds Library at 650 Main St. Doors open at 6pm, and a presentation will be made at 6:30pm.  City staff and the consultant team will be present to answer questions.

The City is currently in the process of updating its 20-year Comprehensive Plan. The Transportation Plan is one of several elements of the Comprehensive Plan and is being updated by the Public Works Department in coordination with the Comprehensive Plan process.   The Transportation Plan will identify short- and long-range transportation projects and strategies that lead to the development of an integrated multimodal transportation system.  The goals of the update are to provide a safer and more efficient movement of people and goods while addressing current and future transportation demand and land use. The updated Plan will introduce the concept of Multimodal Level of Service (MMLOS), referring to a concurrency program recognizing multiple modes of transportation (vehicles, pedestrians, transit, and bicycles) in assessing the infrastructure needs of the City’s transportation system.

The City has developed a preliminary list of future transportation projects which includes capacity and safety intersection improvements, traffic signal upgrades, proposed sidewalks, proposed bike lanes, and proposed multi-use paths. This information, along with other sections of the plan (such as Goals & Policies), will be shared with the public for review and comment.
