- The session gathers feedback for the Belmont Avenue Corridor Study within the Build Better Belmont Initiative.
- The study covers State Route 193 from downtown Youngstown at West Federal Street north to the Interstate 80 interchange and beyond.
- Coalition priorities include public engagement, design and development standards, and placemaking such as streetscape upgrades, cleanups, and vacancy reduction.
- Belmont Avenue is a key route to Mercy Health and the regional airport, and past safety work flagged 39 crashes in three years at Belmont and Churchill Hubbard Road.
