Forward 50: Great Streets Initiative
Have you ever wondered what makes a great street? How would you define what would make a public space in O’Fallon great? Your city would love to get your input on our newest public planning and engagement initiative: Forward 50.
The City of O’Fallon is studying Highway 50 as a part of the East-West Gateway Council of Government’s Great Streets Initiative.
Forward 50 will serve to strengthen the function and appearance of Highway 50 for the O’Fallon community.
The project will:
- Ensure the community is supported and connected throughout all the neighborhoods.
- Understand market demands and potential changes in land use.
- Identify strategies to improve safety for all modes of travel.
- Imagine aesthetic improvements to strengthen the area’s image and desirability.
…and more.
We need your input! Please attend as many of these events as you like to share your ideas, concerns, and preferences.
