A public meeting covering the Abrams Road/Skillman Street Transportation Safety Studies will be held in-person this Thursday, Nov. 7 at the Lakewood Branch Library from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The studies began in Fall of 2023 and will take one year to complete. Each study has three main phases: assess existing conditions, analyze alternative designs for the corridor and finalize recommended transportation improvements.

The public meeting will be hosted by City staff and project consultants, discussing the recommended roadway improvements and input from the community surveys gathered for Abrams Road, between Richmond Avenue and Northwest Highway and Skillman Street, between Live Oak Street and Abrams Road.

The previous online survey was made open to the public from May 3 to May 30, 2024. The surveys provided the public with the opportunity to add commentary on the existing issues and opportunities along both the Abrams Road and Skillman Street Corridors. 

Meeting materials will be made available at this link after the meeting.
