Arvada's first Transportation System Plan

The City of Arvada is studying the current condition of our city-wide transportation network to inform Arvada’s first “Transportation System Plan.” This plan will include optimization opportunities for roads, sidewalks, bus routes, rail stops, and trails throughout the city. A key part of this process is collecting public input.

Arvada residents recently identified transportation-related challenges as key issues in the 2022 Community Survey. Sixty-four percent (64%) of residents placed ‘street and sidewalk conditions’ as a top concern while ‘infrastructure and roads’ and ‘traffic’ weren’t far behind.

Provide your feedback on the "current state" of transportation in Arvada

Currently, we are looking for feedback on how you experience the current state of our transportation system (roads, sidewalks, bus routes, rail stops, and trails).

We will use this feedback alongside technical data to develop recommendations and receive feedback on a vision for the future of the transportation network.

Instructions

Use the map (example below) to provide input at specific locations by selecting one or more of the following pins: “Like”, “Poor Condition”, “Safety Concerns”, “Easy Travel”, “Sufficient Options”, “Needs More Options”, “Traffic Delays”, and “School Concerns”.

To add pins:

1. Click the "+" sign to the left (or at the bottom of your mobile screen).
2. Choose what type of pin you would like to place.
3. Drop the pin on a location on the map to let us know your thoughts and ideas about Arvada’s transportation system.

If you would like to leave general feedback about the project or transportation network, please navigate to the "ideas" or "leave a comment" tab.

The observations and ideas you share will help us define the challenges and opportunities of the city’s existing transportation system and identify potential solutions to address issues.
