Critical Fixes: Near-term Safety & Maintenance Improvements

Coming soon! Major Maintenance Project draft concept design & online survey

The Critical Fixes: Major Maintenance Project is currently in the design phase. In March, we’ll share a draft concept design and invite you to participate in an online survey. As part of this survey, property owners and business owners will be able to share access needs for specific properties and/or businesses, and the public will also be able to share comments on the draft concept design.

We’ll send a link to the Major Maintenance Project draft concept design and online survey in an upcoming e-newsletter.
