[ARCHIVED] Reimagine 419 Transportation Scenarios Community Meeting

The original item was published from December 21, 2016 2:39 PM to December 21, 2016 2:40 PM

"Transportation

Could a new diverging diamond design, like the one now open at Valley View, help solve traffic and safety issues at the Route 419 and Route 220 interchange at Tanglewood Mall? Is it possible to connect the study area to the expanding greenway network? Can we create an environment where cars, pedestrians, bicyclists and buses can safely coexist on Electric Road?

On January 4, residents are invited to attend a presentation exploring these ideas at the Hilton Garden Inn from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. The planning team will discuss preliminary recommendations for transportation and infrastructure in the 419 Town Center.

These recommendations include:
  • Changes in traffic flow to reduce congestion
  • An improved pedestrian and bike network that will connect to surrounding communities
  • New streets that create a more urban grid
  • Green stormwater-management strategies.
After the presentation, participants will have a chance to review preliminary drawings and to meet informally with the planning team to discuss these emerging concepts for the Town Center.   

Location:
Hilton Garden Inn
4500 South Peak Boulevard
Roanoke, VA 24018

CORTRAN and STAR service will be extended until 9 p.m. for this meeting. For more information, visit the Reimagine 419 webpage.
