City of Greensboro to pilot Elm Street closures, invites public to information session
Summary
The City of Greensboro announced a pilot to close parts of Elm Street in downtown to traffic and invited business and property owners and neighbors to an information session July 21 at the West Concourse of The Depot; on-site parking will be free during the session and project details are online.
The City of Greensboro announced a pilot program that will close parts of Elm Street in downtown Greensboro to vehicular traffic and invited business and property owners and nearby residents to an information session on Tuesday, July 21 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the West Concourse of The Depot, the briefing said.
A staff member for the city said on the flash briefing that attendees can "drop in, see the plans, ask questions" and that parking in the Depot lot will be free during the information session. The briefing directed listeners to the project website at greensboro-nc.gov/meetmeonelm for more details.
City staff framed the event as an opportunity to review plans and raise operational questions such as traffic access, loading for downtown businesses and timing. The pilot is described in the briefing as a temporary closure; the briefing did not provide detailed start or end dates for the street closures beyond the information-session date.
The City encouraged affected property and business owners and neighbors to review materials online or attend the session in person. The briefing closed the segment with a program slogan, "meet me on elm."
