The Tuesday, October 22 Central Eugene In Motion Alternatives Review Open House has been rescheduled to November 19 in order to complete traffic modeling work to help inform public input and decision-making. The meeting will be held at the City of Eugene Campbell Community Center (155 High St.) from 6:30-8:30 p.m.

At the meeting, staff will unveil concept designs at the open house for the three key areas. People will have the opportunity to weigh in on the design alternatives at the open house and Engage Eugene.

To date, people have submitted more than a thousand comments through stakeholder meetings, online mapping and surveys, the July 10 Open House, and a series of focus groups with sub-area stakeholders. The project team is now reviewing community input as it begins developing the initial design alternatives.
