The Project

The Mobberly Complete Street Project was approved by voters in Proposition B in the 2018 Bond election. Improvements to Mobberly Avenue were first identified in the Longview Comprehensive Plan which was adopted by the City Council in March 2015.

The City’s Comprehensive Plan is a long-term planning tool that identifies the community’s development priorities for the future, specifically the next 10 to 20 years. The improvements to Mobberly Avenue were identified in the Comprehensive Plan as part of the City’s initiative to increase private investment along key entry roadways, improve connectivity for pedestrian and cyclist, and provide alternative modes of transportation to promote healthy living. Extensive community outreach and input meetings were conducted during the comprehensive planning process to capture the community’s vision to make Longview a livable and economically vibrant community.
