The city of Dayton is leading Revive35, an 18-month study of how to transform a 5.2-mile stretch of U.S. 35 from Steve Whalen Boulevard in East Dayton to South Gettysburg Avenue in West Dayton, WYSO reported. A $2 million U.S. Department of Transportation grant pays for it.
The goals include better traffic flow, reconnecting neighborhoods split by the highway, economic development and health and environmental improvements. Planners will collect traffic and safety data and hear from residents before any construction is designed.
Public workshops are scheduled for Oct. 27 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Dayton Metro Library West Branch and from 6 to 8 p.m. at East End Community Services, and Oct. 28 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Main Library downtown.
