Public Involvement
The City of Madison needs your help to determine a demonstration project to build safety, among those 65 years of age or greater, while walking, driving, bicycling, taking transit, and rideshare. Focus groups will be held with members of our older community at a variety of community locations in Madison to gather data and information from those directly impacted.
The gathered information will be used to help guide the next steps of this project. This could result in an initiative, safety project, and/or development of public informational deliverables.
