Atherton tackles Active Transportation Plan
The town of Atherton is updating its Active Transportation Plan, which is used to provide a roadmap for pedestrian and bike infrastructure improvements.
The town is holding a series of community meetings and encouraging residents to fill out an online survey at Atherton.News/ATP-Survey.
The town held neighborhood meetings on improvements to the Selby/Stockbridge area and the Atherton Avenue area on Nov. 12. The town will have another meeting at the Atherton City Hall (80 Fair Oaks Lane) on Nov. 20 to discuss improvements east of El Camino Real. The meeting starts at 6 p.m. and is expected to last an hour.
More information on the community meeting can be viewed at Atherton.News/Active-Transportation-Plan.
