SAN ANTONIO — Road closures, detours and construction delays are a part of daily life in San Antonio, and now the city wants residents’ feedback.
District 1 Councilmember Dr. Sukh Kaur is introducing a new survey on SASpeakUp. The survey is designed to better understand how, when and where residents prefer to be notified about nearby construction projects. Organizers said the survey takes into account real-world experiences, like encountering unexpected construction during a commute and the impact it had on residents’ day-to-day lives.
“Our office wants to make sure construction updates reach people in ways that are timely, relevant, and easy to access,” Councilmember Kaur said in a release. “By asking residents directly about their habits and preferences, whether that’s using navigation apps or social media, we can design a system that truly works for San Antonio residents.”
According to the release, the new survey takes less than four minutes to complete and residents are encouraged to participate until 5 p.m. on June 26. The survey will ask for opinions on preferred communication methods, including mobile apps, social media platforms and other options as well as how often people want updates and what time of day is best to be notified. The survey will also explore whether updates should be provided in community spaces such as libraries, parks, and community centers.
Organizers said the survey responses will help shape future efforts to improve construction communication and better meet community needs. The survey is available in English and Spanish at SASpeakUp.com/Construct.
