The City of Grand Rapids is hosting a community open house on Tuesday, November 17, from 5:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the Grand Rapids Public Library’s Ryerson Auditorium to discuss the proposed conversion of Lyon Street to two-way traffic.
Representatives from Mobile GR and AECOM will be available throughout the evening to answer questions, hear concerns, and discuss the proposed changes.

Although the City’s meeting flyer references both Fountain and Lyon Streets, Fountain Street is not currently proposed for conversion. Fountain was included in the original study and earlier community engagement, which is why it remains referenced in the meeting materials.
The proposed changes could affect traffic patterns and travel through Heritage Hill. Residents are encouraged to attend the open house to learn more about the proposal, ask questions, and better understand the potential impacts on our neighborhood.
