City Launches Outreach for Greenways Project on Neighborhood Corridors

The City of Pasadena Department of Transportation is inviting community members to help shape the Greenways Project, an initiative to create calmer, safer neighborhood streets while maintaining local access and improving connections for people walking, biking and driving, the department said in a statement.

The project focuses on four key north–south corridors — El Molino, Wilson, Sierra Bonita and Craig avenues — that connect neighborhoods to schools, parks, transit, businesses and Pasadena’s existing active transportation network. According to the department, improving these corridors will help strengthen connections across the 210 Freeway and create a more comfortable and connected transportation network.

The Greenways Project is being developed in collaboration with the community to reflect local priorities and support Pasadena’s broader goals for safety, mobility and sustainability, the department said.

The department announced Greenways Project outreach with the following events and workshops.
