The St. Louis Regional Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Study, led by East-West Gateway Council of Governments, has set dates for 5 new public meetings. As the TOD study project moves forward with its goal of promoting “compact, walkable communities centered around a high-quality rail system” and its efforts to increase transportation options, mobility, sustainability, and livability in the St. Louis area, public engagement is a key element.
Currently, opportunities for TOD are being explored for the North Hanley, Emerson Park/Jackie-Joyner-Kersee Center, Fairview Heights, Rock Road, and Union Station/Civic Center. Open-house style public meetings have been scheduled for each of these MetroLink station areas. The public is encouraged to attend, as attendees will have the chance to participate in a map exercise and take a poll on potential development. Meetings are scheduled from 5:30 to 7:30 pm, with the presentation starting at 6:00 pm. Details on dates and locations for each of the meetings is listed below:
