Hwy 47 & Hwy 65 — Planning study

Help shape the future of Highway 47 and Highway 65

View full-size map

How do you use Hwy 47/University Ave. and Hwy 65/Central Ave? Maybe you’re just passing through, or this 10-mile corridor is your main route to where you live, work, and play. Regardless of how you use these roadways: walking, biking, public transit, or driving - the way you travel matters.

In their current state, these roadways aren’t serving the community as they should. There are more accidents than average on segments of Hwy 47 and Hwy 65, and accidents that involve pedestrians and bicyclists are far more likely to result in death or serious injuries.The safety of all who use these roads has become a growing concern.

We are engaging the communities along Hwy 47 and Hwy 65 in a new study to better understand the needs of the those who travel along these roadways and what future improvements will help make conditions better for all. Your feedback will help shape a new and improved 47/65.

Share your vision at one of our upcoming public meetings. Whether in-person or virtual, you’ll be a part of vital conversations that will help pave the way for future travel along University and Central Avenues. View in-person and virtual meeting information below and register to attend today!
