Roswell invites residents to “help the city envision the future of bicycle and pedestrian connectivity” at two open house-style meetings in May for the city’s first Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan.

The meetings are 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, May 7, in the Hembree Park Community Room, 850 Hembree Road; and the same time Thursday, May 9, at the East Rowell Park Recreation Center, 9000 Fouts Road.

City staff will be on hand to answer questions, provide information and take comments "on where and how future bicycle and pedestrian investments can be made," the city said. Residents who cannot attend can contribute by taking an online survey: www.roswellgov.com/BikePedSurvey
