Final Akron Innerbelt plan focuses on more houses, new roads
After more than a year of interviews, workshops and community discussions, the City of Akron has released a master plan that aims to repair the harm caused by the construction of the Innerbelt and the destruction of the neighborhood in its path. The plan, developed by Sasaki, a Boston-based planning and engineering firm, acknowledges that it will take decades — and tens of millions of dollars — to implement the litany of proposals that extend far beyond the currently decommissioned portion of the highway.
