The Central Iowa Regional Transportation Planning Alliance (CIRTPA) will hold a public information meeting in Indianola on Tuesday, July 9, regarding its regional Comprehensive Safety Action Plan. The plan is being developed as part of the Safe Streets for All program, which aims to prevent deaths and serious injuries for all users on the nation’s roadways.
The meeting, which will be held in an open-house format with no formal presentation, is from 4-6 p.m. and will take place in the Community Room at the Indianola Wellness Campus.
The goal of the regional Safety Action Plan is to enhance roadway safety, CIRPTA officials said in a news release. It will identify solutions and strategies for all people using the road – including drivers, passengers, pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and people with disabilities. Furthermore, the plan is being developed for the incorporated cities within Boone, Dallas, Jasper, Madison, Marion, Story and Warren Counties. The unincorporated portions of the counties are part of a separate project, CIRPTA officials added.
