One workshop was <br /> held in person, and the other was held virtually. <br /> The in-person workshop included a large-format aerial map of the corridor (Figure 15), on <br /> which attendees were asked to share challenges, preferences, and concerns using sticky <br /> notes placed at locations across the corridor. <br /> Ole- <br /> .y, <br /> Figure 15: Workshop 1 participants notated comments on <br /> aerial maps regarding corridor enhancements during the <br /> event on Aug.26,2025. <br /> Feedback Received <br /> A total of 45 community members participated and 102 comments were collected on <br /> comment cards (Figure 16), design option boards (Figure 17), and aerial maps of the <br /> corridor via sticky notes.
