Lane County is hosting a community meeting on Saturday, June 24, 2023 to get feedback on three possible concepts for Blue River Drive, including bike lanes, on-street parking, and sidewalks.
Lane County would like to develop a design concept for Blue River Drive that reflects community preferences. Creating a solid vision for Blue River Drive is needed to provide better direction for people redeveloping in the area. A community supported plan would also help Lane County pursue grant funding for eventually constructing the desired roadway.
There are 3 options for the downtown area of Blue River Drive:
There are 3 options for West Blue River Drive as well:
Residents can also provide comment via email to Becky Taylor at Becky.Taylor@LaneCountyOR.gov. More information about this project and others in the Blue River area can be found at www.mckenzierebuilds.org/blue-river.
Developing a design concept for Blue River Drive is part of Lane County’s ongoing work to support rebuilding after the Holiday Farm Fire. This step follows working with residents and businesses to eliminate barriers related to roadway setbacks.
