Route 291 Listening Session

Chester Township

Mon, Apr 3 @ 9:29am
Description
The Delaware County Planning Department will be hosting a community listening session on Thursday, April 13, at the Calvary Baptist Church in Chester, to engage the residents and help identify ways to develop a safer Route 291.
The most significant problem is that Route 291 is a wide, straight, multilane road with speeding traffic, making it unsafe for residents, pedestrians, and bicyclists and cuts off residents from the waterfront, natural areas, attractions, and job opportunities. Road users must also navigate heavy truck traffic due to the industrial uses that dominate this corridor.
Delaware County residents are urged to attend the listening session and engage in breakout discussions. Come and explain what it means to live, work, and travel along Route 291, share your concerns and your visions for what a revamped Route 291 should look like.
Listening Session Details:
Calvary Baptist Church
1616 W 2nd Street, Chester, PA 19013
Thursday, April 13, 2023
6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Dinner will be served to all attendees
