Highway 50 Main Street Management Plan

Open House: November 20, 2019, 5:30-7:30 p.m.

 

Lake Tahoe, Stateline, NV –Following TRPA’s Governing Board decision to approve the Highway 50 Revitalization Plan last year, planning alternatives are now coming into focus on the project.

TRPA is inviting the public to an open house to give their input as the design evolution of the Highway 50/Main Street Management Plan comes into view. The event will be held Wednesday November 20, from 5:30 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. at The Lake Tahoe Resort Hotel in the Tallac Room. The resort is located at 4130 Lake Tahoe Boulevard, South Lake Tahoe, California. We’re inviting the public to drop in any time during the two-hour open house.

The open house will feature informational stations for residents to give input on the three design alternatives proposed.

This open house is the third of four that TRPA and the Tahoe Transportation District will host over the coming months. We are encouraging residents to give their input on what should be considered in the final stages of design for this project. With the relocation of Highway 50 behind the casino core, residents and visitors alike will have a safer and more usable main street core. The new alignment of U.S. Highway 50 will stretch from Pioneer Trail to Lake Parkway. Residents can expect amenities like bike lanes, wider pedestrian sidewalks, and more open gathering spaces throughout the main street corridor.

A fourth and final open house will be held in early 2020 to present the public with a final draft of the design plan.

The Tahoe Regional Planning Agency leads the cooperative effort to preserve, restore, and enhance the unique natural and human environment of the Lake Tahoe Region, while improving local communities, and people’s interactions with our irreplaceable environment.
