How can the new Memorial Bridge and our regional transportation system connect our communities
and make Kittery and Portsmouth the best places to live, work and play for everyone?
Portsmouth Listens and Sustainable Portsmouth are teaming up to host a one day discussion on this topic, February 11, 2012 from 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM. Participants will be divided into focus groups to discuss the bridge replacement, ways we can still have input into the final design, getting from place to place during construction, and implications for the regional transportation network, including the impending replacement of the Sarah Long Bridge. Representatives of NH Department of Transportation will be there to answer questions.
In a follow up session, date to be determined, we will present our citizen findings to officials of the City of Portsmouth, The City of Kittery, and the Maine and NH Departments of Transportation.
