REMINDER: Summit Boulevard Lane Repurposing Feasibility Study Open House June 20
The City of Pensacola is hosting a second open house on Tuesday, June 20 to gather input from the community about the Summit Boulevard Lane Repurposing Feasibility Study, as the city continues exploring options for potential lane repurposing on Summit Boulevard.
The open house will take place from 6:30-7:30 p.m. at the Vickrey Resource Center, located at 2130 Summit Blvd. All members of the community are encouraged to come learn more about the feasibility study and provide their input.
The first open house took place on May 16, with great attendance and input from residents. The second open house will incorporate residents' feedback from the first open house, along with gathering additional input from the community. There will not be a formal presentation, but residents are encouraged to stop by and share their feedback between 6:30 and 7:30 p.m.
The City of Pensacola is completing a lane repurposing feasibility study of Summit Boulevard from North 12th Avenue to Spanish Trail. The purpose of the study is to evaluate lane repurposing and its impact on bicyclists, pedestrians, and motor vehicles.
A lane repurposing study looks at the feasibility of reassigning roadway space to achieve other purposes such as economic development, safety and mobility for all users.
There is currently no funding set aside for design or construction, but the city is exploring options for Summit Boulevard based on the community's wants and needs.
For information about the project, including the technical report and renderings, please visit the city website.
