Note: Tuesday, May 6 is the correct date! If you came here from our newsletter, there was a typo!

For our May open meeting, we’re headed to 200 South! Advocating for a people-first 200 South was one of Sweet Streets’ first campaigns (#BusFirst200!), and we’re stoked now that it’s finally completed! And with more on the way—bus stop amenities like lighting and arrival status boards are being installed, transit signal priority is on the horizon as is the doubling of Route 2 for an 8-minute frequency next year. 

To celebrate the glow-up of this critical downtown corridor, we’ll be starting this month’s open meeting with an optional group bike ride/victory lap of 200 South starting from Este Pizzeria Downtown at 6 PM. Not biking? No problem! Meet us at Este at 6:30 PM! 

No matter how you got there, we’ll then chat about our experiences and you’ll have the opportunity to write a postcard giving feedback to local decision makers. And of course, we’ll hang out and grab a slice of pizza!

Este Pizzeria Downtown (156 E. 200 South) is in one of the most transit-accessible parts of the city, served by buses 2, 220, 205, 4, 1, 200, 470, and 209, plus all three Trax lines (Library and Gallivan Stations are both within three blocks). If you’re biking, you can use the new 200 South buffered lanes, and there are 6 new bike parking spaces on either side of the mid-block crossing in front of Este. There’s also a GREENbike station on the northeast corner of 200 South 200 East.

We hope to see you there!
