What it means for me
Residents near candidate sites should check the feasibility study and public notice details.
If your commute area overlaps with a candidate site, future development plans could change.
If you operate a shop near a candidate site, it is worth monitoring regional changes from facility installation.
If you live near a candidate site, you can participate in the resident opinion consultation process.
