Yesterday, Traverse City officials met with MDOT Executive Director Kirk Steudle in Lansing to discuss the possibility of still incoporating Complete Streets within the upcoming 8th Street road project. Mayor Bzdok, City Manager Bifoss, Senator Allen and Representative Schmidt were also present at this meeting. There are not many details to report yet, but based on comments by MDOT’s North Region Manager Rise Rasch to the Traverse City Transportation Elements Committee last night, options for an improved 8th Street between Barlow and Garfield are still on the table for 2010. Exciting news!
