U.S. 35 stretches across the Miami Valley, but leaders in Montgomery County are focusing on the part drivers take through Dayton.
Right now, three lanes of travel flow in both directions.
The east side of the highway was built in the 1960s, and the lanes west of Interstate 75 came in the late 1990s.
Now, the city wants resident feedback on how they can improve the corridor.
They’re looking at ways to improve safety, access and development along the highway.
The money is coming from the Department of Transportation’s Reconnecting Communities Project.
The plan was originally launched over the summer, and leaders want to hear people’s ideas on everything from traffic flow to public health.
If you would like to give your input, you can go to the following sessions:
- October 27 at 4 p.m. Dayton Metro Library - West Branch 300 Abbey
- October 27 at 6 p.m. East End Community Services - 624 Xenia Ave
- October 28, Stop In Anytime from 11 a.m.- 1 p.m. - Dayton Metro Library - Downtown 213 E 3rd St
