Southside United for Indianapolis Trails is seeking online feedback about a southside tactical urbanism project.

The project launched earlier this year as a way to slow down traffic along Troy Avenue near the Bean Creek neighborhood. The temporary work involved installing large traffic barriers filled with water to narrow the street and potentially slow drivers.

The survey, available in both English and Spanish, asks residents to identify their mode of transportation for traveling in the area, how they felt about the traffic calming project and whether it made an impact on safety.
