ALLEN COUNTY, OH (WLIO) - Local youth are being asked for feedback on active transportation in Allen County.
The Bike and Pedestrian Task Force discussed ways to improve overall transportation in the area, with a focus on youth. The group says that they want to gather input from the area's young minds in order to have their voices heard, as well as give them a chance to participate in making a change in their community.
"Whenever it comes to making policies and improvements to active transportation structures, sidewalks, crosswalks, that kind of thing, youth are usually not involved in that conversation, so we really want to hear what they have to say about their needs and their wants and also their potential struggles that they are having currently," said Bri Buzzard, creating health communities coordinator.
Surveys will be distributed to schools as well as future events in Allen County.
