The City of Swift Current will be holding a public event tonight to gather feedback on their Transportation Master Plan.

The final report on the plan is expected later this year, and City Engineering Director Mac Forster says they are making good progress.

"I believe at the last steering committee meeting we had with them, they identified 138 actions that could be carried out relatively immediately to help enhance or promote better traffic or transportation within the city," Forster said. "There's going to be some long-range and short-term solutions that come out in all this."

Forster adds they've been gathering feedback from business owners, stakeholders and engineers to help put together the plan, but they are looking for feedback from the public: "I think at this upcoming meeting, I wouldn't be suprised if the consultants begin to present some solutions back to the public, but they're certainly open to gain more input from the public."

Tonight's event is from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Swift Current Mall.
