Historic Handley Development Corporation

No appointment necessary Covid Vaccines tomorrow, 3/24 at the Handley-Meadowbrook Community Center!

Join East Lancaster Avenue property owners and stakeholders to discuss potential improvements in land use, new development and transportation along the East Lancaster Avenue corridor.

A virtual kickoff meeting for East Lancaster Avenue Corridor planning is scheduled for TOMORROW, 3:30-5 p.m. Sept. 24 via Webex.

Staff from the City of Fort Worth and Trinity Metro will present information – and seek residents’ ideas – about challenges and opportunities along the corridor, potential for new development and options for transportation improvements, including a planned bus rapid transit system in the East Lancaster Avenue corridor.

These discussions will inform near-term improvements and guide planning for future transit-oriented development along the corridor that could occur with bus rapid transit.
