The City of Mission is studying potential improvements to the Rock Creek Corridor from Woodson Street to its western terminus. This study will provide recommendations that will support transportation, safety, and green infrastructure along the Rock Creek Corridor while identifying ways to connect and support adjacent businesses and land uses to create meaningful community gathering spaces.
This public event is a mobile workshop with the option to walk or bike the corridor. Whichever mode you choose, project team members will facilitate your journey with several stops to discuss and reflect on current conditions and future aspirations.
