Project Spotlights

S 5th St W and S 6th St W Transportation Function and Safety Analysis
After requests from the surrounding neighborhood, the City of Missoula studied S 5th St W and S 6th St W Higgins Ave and Russell St to see if any reconfigurations are feasible that may help address perceived issues of speeding, congestion, and safety for all users. There was a public meeting on Thursday, November 3 to present the 5th / 6th Street Traffic Analysis Memo and the 5th / 6th Street Traffic Model Output and gather feedback through a short survey on possible alternative options to the current configuration of the roadways.

This meeting kicked off a month long public comment period that will help City Council make a decision about a preferred alternative. For more information or to provide comment, please contact Ben Weiss, Bicycle/Pedestrian Program Manager 552-6352
