Connect Northwest Arkansas Is Seeking Input at Various Events
One of the venues to provide input concerning area transit issues will be at the Razorbacks' home baseball game on April 2.
The Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission, though a plan called Connect Northwest Arkansas, has set up several opportunities for you to provide feedback about what is needed in the way of area transportation.
Nine different venues—two at the University of Arkansas—are scheduled on five calendar days in early April.
The first is at Baum Walker Stadium on Tuesday, April 2, when the Razorback baseball team hosts the Little Rock Trojans.
The other is on the afternoon of Thursday, April 4, at the Union Station on campus.
At any of the nine locations, project team members will be present to hear your questions or suggestions. There will also be interactive maps and activities at each place, along with an opportunity to complete a short survey.
Transit and Parking — particularly Razorback Transit — is involved in the ongoing discussions with the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission and is also a partner of Connect Northwest Arkansas along with Ozark Regional Transit.
