Transportation issues are front and center in St. Anthony Park – from safer sidewalks and bike routes to truck traffic, buses, and highway planning. SAPCC’s Transportation Committee is where neighbors roll up their sleeves and dive in.
This summer the committee weighed in on the Pelham Boulevard redesign, Highway 280 closure planning, and truck traffic through South SAP – while also hosting a bike and helmet giveaway at Westgate Commons Park to promote safe riding. Looking ahead, the committee will continue engaging neighbors around Rethinking I-94, local detours, and pedestrian access.
“Transportation touches everyone,” said Pat Thompson, Co-Chair of the Transportation Committee. “Whether you’re walking, biking, or catching the bus, your perspective matters. We’re looking for neighbors who care about these issues to join the discussion and help us push for solutions that make our community safer and more connected.”
The Transportation Committee meets the last Tuesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. – all are welcome to attend in person or online. Details are always posted at sapcc.org/.
