Transit Survey Results Presentation

Transit Map.jpg

On Monday, July 15th at 7:00 p.m., please join Cedar Park Neighbors and its Transit Committee for a presentation on the results of our recent Transit Survey at the Calvary Community Center located at 48th and Baltimore Avenue (please use the small side door on Baltimore Avenue to the left of the WPMF sign - meeting in the 2nd floor Upper Board Room).

Earlier this year, the Transit Committee created and distributed a local transit survey to solicit direct feedback from our residents on what they want to focus on for transit improvements. The presentation will feature a summary of the survey results as well as an overview of the Transit Committee’s goals as determined by the survey feedback. The Transit Committee aims to represent the community's wants and needs as we advocate to make our neighborhood easier to use, for people that live, work, or visit the area.

Can’t make it but want to get involved? Email the Transit Committee at transit@cedarparkneighbors.org.
