How would you like to see West Florissant Avenue change in the coming years?

That is the question being asked of area residents, businesses and stake holders as part of the West Florissant Avenue Great Streets Project which is designed to create a safe and accessible area for all vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists and transit riders and connect communities, strengthen West Florissant Avenue’s positive identity, enhance mobility for all users and build momentum to transform the area’s future.

“The Great Streets Initiative goes back to the middle part of the early 2000s,” said St. Louis County Departments of Transportation and Public Works Public Information Manager David G. Wrone. “It was established to identify thoroughfares throughout St. Louis County that would be good candidates for improvements and redesigns and West Florissant Avenue was selected as an ideal street for that purpose.”

The final project is intended to provide improvements on West Florissant Avenue from Stein Avenue South to the Norfolk Southern Railroad in Ferguson.
