Public Involvement
The City of Charlotte conducted a series of meetings in 2015 to solicit feedback about potential sidewalk and bicycle projects along the Independence Boulevard corridor from Briar Creek Road to Sardis Road North. The goal is to provide more transportation choices, connectivity and accessibility.
In the spring of 2023, the project team shared a six-minute presentation to share information about the project and next steps.
