LUNCH & LEARN:
Gorham East-West Corridor Study
"This could be the most important transportation study in our region during this decade!" - John Duncan, PACTS
The Gorham East-West Corridor Feasibility
Study is a major transportation and land use study of the Gorham, Westbrook, Scarborough and South Portland area. This area has historically been the fastest-growing residential region in Maine and as such, is subject to increasing traffic congestion, decreasing traffic safety and the loss of its treasured rural character.
Projections show 70% of the new homes and jobs in Maine over the next 25 years will locate in this part of Cumberland and York County - that’s about 35,000 new homes and about 25,000 new jobs.
Area residents and business owners are encouraged to attend this meeting to help determine the best way to manage this projected growth and to provide input on potential transportation and land use solutions.
GPCOG Building
The public is encouraged to ask questions and make comments during this meeting.
Lunch will be provided, so please let me Maddy Adams know by April 6th if you are planning to come.
