Public invited to learn more about Mesa light rail expansion

November 24, 2010 by Rail Life Leave a Comment

More Mesa light rail expansion information is now available and the public is invited to add their .02 on Friday, December 10th. Take a look at today’s release from METRO.

Draft Environmental Assessment Available for Review

One opportunity to review is a public meeting on Dec. 10

METRO and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) have prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (Draft EA) report for the Central Mesa extension of light rail on Main Street to Mesa Drive in accordance with requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. The federally-required EA evaluates the potential impacts to the neighboring environment. Many social, economical, and environmental categories were evaluated including noise and vibration, traffic and parking, historical and archaeological resources, and potential impacts related to construction activities.  METRO will take public comments on the draft EA from Nov. 24 – Dec. 24, 2010.  All comments received by Dec. 24, 2010 will be addressed in the Final EA.

The public is invited to attend an open house in which project staff will provide information, respond to questions and receive comments on the Draft EA.

Friday, Dec. 10, 2010
