Eastside Park & Ride Study
We’re exploring potential development concepts for two underused Park & Ride locations: E. 122nd/Menlo Park and E. 181st Ave.
We received a grant from the Federal Transit Administration to study how to improve our 122nd and 181st Avenue Park & Ride lots. We want to bring development that helps the community and neighborhood. Please review the information below and share your feedback.
