Caltrans announced today that the second and final public open house for the Broadway Feasibility Study will be held on Thursday, February 27, 2014, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Wharfinger Building, 1 Marina Way in Eureka. This drop-in style open house will look at possible improvements to Broadway in Eureka along the three mile stretch of US Highway 101 between Kmart and the division of 4th and 5th Streets. There will be a brief formal presentation at 4:30 p.m. and again at 5:30 p.m. in addition to an opportunity for the public to review displays, ask questions of Caltrans staff, and provide responses. This will be the last public open house prior to the study’s completion in summer 2014.
The engineered feasibility study will identify and evaluate safety, operational, and mobility improvements for all modes of transportation along the Broadway corridor. In the future, the study will be used as a reference document identifying potential improvement projects, enabling Caltrans to respond to and compete for various project funding sources as they become available.
