Reimagine Ridge Pike Design Challenge

Press release from the Lower Providence Township:

Posted on: February 26, 2021 - 2:27pm

Do you have special talents in design or an interest in community development? If so, we want to invite you to participate in the Reimagine Ridge Pike Design Challenge. The challenge is part of the Township’s Comprehensive Plan Update process.

A key component of developing a comprehensive plan includes soliciting input from the public to learn more about their interests and priorities for the future of Lower Providence. In its current state, it is hard for people to visualize how Ridge Pike could be an inviting and safe walkable shopping and dining area that draws residents to spend time.

This type of design challenge is often used by local governments to go beyond a typical presentation format to include a creative and interactive way to generate ideas and involve the community. Participants are asked to create a conceptual vision of a Ridge Pike streetscape in the form of a Computer Aided Design (CAD), hand-drawn image, vision board or some other visual medium.

The target area can be any section of Ridge Pike between Trooper Road and Eagleville Road. Detailed Information is contained in the following documents:

• Reimagine Ridge Pike - Challenge Details
• Resource Guide - Reimagine Ridge Pike

Entry submissions are due April 23rd.
