Thrive Allen County

Demonstration Projects

In the Spring of 2022, the MPO will be working with Thrive Allen County to install two demonstration projects in Iola. The goal of the projects is to improve the safety of crosswalks near schools.  

 

 


 

The materials to be used for the projects are on loan from the Flint Hills MPO.
