Transportation officials will host an online town hall meeting next week seeking input on the future of Highway 37.

Hosted by Sens. Mike McGuire, D-Healdsburg, and Bill Dodd, D-Napa, the April 15 virtual event runs from 6:30-7:30 p.m., and will feature discussions about three coordinated planning efforts meant to develop solutions for improving the roadway and responding to environmental challenges.

The meeting will be streamed online through McGuire’s website, and more information on the planning effort is available at www.Resilient37.org.
