Traffic, parking mobility a big part of Downtown Missoula Master Plan

“If we want to be a community that is sustainable we have to get more people biking, walking, busing. We have to design streets for all types of uses and not just vehicle or truck use,” Downtown Missoula Partnership executive director Linda McCarthy said.

While the newly completed Downtown Master Plan addresses a lot of broader concepts and proposals for the future of Missoula’s core, the plan also deals with the “nuts and bolts” of the city’s busiest corner.

The plan, which is being shown to a long list of Missoula government organizations and business groups this week, outlines the objectives for the downtown over the next 10-years.
