Future 42 Public Engagement
Consultation has concluded
**The engagement period has been extended until April 15, 2022**
The City of Lafayette and the City of Louisville invite residents and commuters to share their feedback on the Future of State Highway 42 during Phase 2 of the Future 42 Project.
In May 2021, over 100 members of our communities shared their thoughts on the future of Highway 42 Corridor (also known as 95th Street or Courtesy Road) in Lafayette and Louisville for people who walk, wheel, ride transit, or drive.
Residents and commuters may now offer feedback on the three alternatives that have been developed for each intersection along the Highway 42 Corridor. Residents and commuters will have the opportunity to evaluate each alternative indicating what elements they prefer.
Although this project was conceived prior to the devastating effects of the Marshall Fire, planning for the future is now more important than ever. As Louisville seeks state and federal funding to help with the rebuilding of the city, it’s essential that plans consider both the current and future needs of residents and commuters as we invest in our transportation infrastructure to ensure public safety and mobility.
Gathering feedback from both Lafayette and Louisville residents and commuters helps us meet their needs and we are grateful to everyone who takes the time to share their feedback.
Mayor JD Mangat, City of Lafayette
Mayor Ashley Stolzmann, City of Louisville
