Outreach Opportunities
Airway Heights community members will have frequent opportunities to review and comment on the corridor design. The City will host two open houses and two “pop-up” events, each intended to report on the design process and solicit suggestions for the design team’s consideration.

Open House Events
Open House #1 - Phase #1, 30% Concept Design
This open house – held in early February 2023 – focused on the corridor’s conceptual design. Visitors saw how the concept evolved from the schematic designs advanced in the US 2 Corridor Plan and Downtown Strategic Plan. This level of design addresses alignment, allocation of the right of way for automotive and pedestrian use, and intersection design, tackling important details on how to make the concepts fit within the allowable space.

Open House #2 - Phase #2, 30% Concept Design
The second open house, in late March 2024, will focus on a preferred design concept, displaying what is considered a 60% level of design. This will include revisions to the 30% design presented in February, with additional detail examining landscaping, street furniture, and any other special treatments planned for the corridor.
