This is an opportunity for Short North area residents to share their thoughts about mobility and transit in our community. The Short North Alliance is partnering with the Neighborhood Design Center to study the existing built environment and infrastructure and hear from community members about what would make it easier (and safer) for them to access and use transit or non-personal-car modes of travel in the areas around the Short North. Our goal is to identify high-impact projects that we can advocate for as the city develops its plans for major investments in bikeways, sidewalks, trails, and other transit-supportive infrastructure in the future. One lucky survey participant will receive a $100 gift card!

Short North Mobility Assessment Turn data collection into an experience with Typeform. Create beautiful online forms, surveys, quizzes, and so much more. Try it for FREE.
