Briefing: West-East Connections Study (WE Connect), Phase One
Discussed
Transportation staff presented phase one results of the study, funded through the U.S. DOT Reconnecting Communities Pilot Program, which looks at west-east travel across the I-15 and railroad divide. Discussion covered engagement, limited community representation in phase one, and blocked train crossings affecting West Side businesses and residents. Staff said phase two would expand engagement and translated materials. Council Member Petro asked that a north-south divide element be included; Council Member Young suggested scoring community representation in the procurement.
