TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT MEETING

Allegheny County Economic Development (ACED) and the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC), in cooperation with the City of Pittsburgh Department of City Planning and Carnegie Borough, are pleased to announce exciting opportunities to provide input in the development of transit-oriented community development plans in two West Busway communities – Carnegie Borough and the Sheraden neighborhood in the City of Pittsburgh.
The purpose of the meetings, open to the public, is to present preliminary development concepts for the areas around these two West Busway stations (only the station at the meeting location will be addressed during each meeting). The concepts are based on background information and analysis compiled during the planning process and ideas generated by participants at the station-area visioning workshops held in March 2010.
