The City of Spokane will host an open house on Wednesday, Sept. 28, to gather input from citizens on Phase I of its Pedestrian Plan Update. The open house will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at the NEWESD 101, 4202 S. Regal St., Spokane, WA 99223.



The open house is a key opportunity to provide input on how the City should increase pedestrian safety and mobility, support a multimodal transportation system, and how to best use resources to implement pedestrian initiatives.

Phase I of the Pedestrian Plan Update will focus on public education and sidewalk infrastructure installation. There are more than 650 miles of missing sidewalks in the City of Spokane and a limited funding source for sidewalk infrastructure. This is the first phase in completing a citywide pedestrian network and will identify priorities based on generators, such as schools, parks, commercial areas, and STA bus stops.

Citizens riding the bus to the open house would ride route 45 Southeast Blvd.
