A big thank you to those who attended one of the METRO Gold Line Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) station site design events. In September and October, over 60 people participated in two online open houses and three outdoor pop-up events. At these events, the community talked with project staff, reviewed the updated station site designs, and provided feedback.
Feedback we heard at these events include:
• Provide sidewalk and trail connections between stations and neighborhoods
• Ensure safe pedestrian crossings at busy intersections
• Maintain or improve traffic flow and safety in places where Gold Line is impacting the existing road
• Limit construction impacts to homes by protecting trees, staging work, and minimizing noise
This feedback will help project staff refine the stations’ design and ensure that the Gold Line project best serves the community’s needs.

Online open house recordings are posted on the project website. Watch the presentation for project updates and hear what your neighbors had to say about station designs.
We are collecting feedback on the updated station site plans until November 16, 2020.
