Public Invited to Comment on Scherer Road/Parkway Alignment

The City of Lee’s Summit is hosting a public meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, March 19, in the Media Center Room A138 at Hawthorn Hill Elementary School, 2801 SW Pryor Road, Lee’s Summit, MO 64082, to discuss the Alignment Study of Scherer Road/Parkway. The meeting will allow the public to view conceptual exhibits, ask questions, provide feedback, and gain insights into the timeline, scope, and impact on the community. The meeting is an open house style format and the public can come and go as schedules allow. City staff as well as representatives from design engineering firm Lochmueller Inc. will be available for questions.

The study will establish a preferred alignment for: Scherer Road/Parkway between Sampson Road and M291 Hwy; Scherer Parkway between Scherer Road/Parkway and the Future Hook Interchange at M291 Hwy; and Longview Boulevard between Longview Road and Hook Road. The alignment study is the first step in the Scherer Road – 291 Highway to Sampson Road project, which will be accomplished in two phases, and the Longview Boulevard from Longview Road to Scherer Road project.

Information, conceptual exhibits, and a comment form also will be available on the City’s website at cityofLS.net/Scherer.
