EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — The El Paso Metropolitan Planning Organization (EPMPO) is hosting a series of pop-up events to get public input as it develops a regional plan to reduce crashes.
At each event, participants will be able to see “crash hotspots” within the community and they will be able to provide input about any concerns they may have about the region’s roadways, EPMPO said in a news release.
“Once completed, the plan will lay the future groundwork for safer streets across the region so that all users, whether driving, rolling, walking, biking or using public transportation, can travel with confidence. It is critical that the community participates during the planning process,” EPMPO said in its news release.
The entire community is invited to attend. Families are encouraged to bring their children to participate in an interactive activity.
