Santa Clara Community Organization – Eugene

Better Eugene-Springfield Transportation (BEST) is wrapping up hearing about how well Highway 99 is working today.

Now the City of Eugene is starting to develop a River Road Multimodal Safety Plan aimed at making the street safer, more reliable, and better connected for everyone.

Instead of starting the conversation afresh, the City of Eugene is running a survey to confirm priorities previously identified in our Better Streets work and in the River Road/Santa Clara Neighborhood Plan.

By Sunday, August 9, please take this short survey to confirm that the City of Eugene is addressing the right issues:
