REMINDER: GROWTH PLAN SURVEY CLOSES AT MIDNIGHT
The City of Saskatoon reminds residents that the third round of open public engagement for the Growth Plan to Half a Million (Growth Plan) closes at midnight, Wednesday, March 18, 2015.
Have your say! Visit www.growingfwd.ca to review project information and complete the online survey.
Input is being sought on the recommended long-term plans for a new transit system with Bus Rapid Transit (BRT); a new river crossing at 33rd Street combined with BRT lanes on the University Bridge; and redevelopment along major corridors like 8th Street, 22nd Street, and Preston Avenue.
The public also has an opportunity to provide feedback on the recommended implementation priorities for putting specific features of the Growth Plan in motion over the short-, medium-, and long-term.
The input gathered during this round of engagement will help to develop the long-term plans for corridor redevelopment, transit, and core area bridges, as well as set the direction for an implementation plan. We will be back in the fall to share what we heard and confirm the final Growth Plan with the public.
Once complete, the Growth Plan will help to guide future infrastructure investments so residents will have more choices for how they live and move around the city as Saskatoon grows to half a million people over the next 30 to 40 years.
