The Boulevards of Concord - Virtual Open House

Survey will be open through October 31, 2023 @ 11:59 PM

Project Overview

The City of Concord is conducting a study of the Concord Mills Boulevard – Bruton Smith Boulevard Corridor to establish a community vision and path to achieve that vision. These Boulevards are some of the largest and busiest roads in the city and home to some of the most visited entertainment attractions Concord has to offer. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and vision!

Focus Areas

Transportation: The way that residents, employees, and visitors get to and move around the Boulevards have a huge impact on the area’s future. This corridor study will consider the ways people move today, and how they’d like to move in the future.
Land Use: The various businesses, residents, and other destinations along the Boulevards drive demand and attention in the area. The City’s 2030 Land Use Plan established a vision of what this area may become in the future.
Utilities and Infrastructure: Ensuring sufficient utilities are present is a key component to ensuring a region is prepared to succeed. Existing utility easements can also provide opportunities for further improvements.
Market Conditions: Including trade areas, demographics, and looking at gaps in the market.
