Downtown SAM Project

On this episode of What Do You Know, Scott and Arnie sit down with Ashley Warren, Communications Specialist with the Missoula Redevelopment Agency, and Megan McMeekin, Senior Project Manager with Missoula’s Public Works & Mobility Department, to dive into the Downtown SAM Project. The Downtown SAM (Safety, Access & Mobility) Project is a major multi-modal initiative aimed at reshaping the heart of Missoula’s downtown to make it safer, more accessible, and easier to navigate for pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, transit users, and local businesses alike. The project includes re-envisioning key streets like Higgins Avenue, restoring two-way traffic on Front and Main, enhancing riverfront trail connectivity, optimizing downtown signals, and improving public engagement in the design process. Listen for all the cool details.
