‘SAFE THE PIKE’ Petition Launched
GFCA invites residents and others to sign the SAFE THE PIKE petition for a safer Georgetown Pike.
The volume, speed, and safety of Georgetown Pike traffic is a major concern of this community and something needs to be done about it. Most Great Falls residents place "traffic congestion and speeding" second only to "overdevelopment" as the greatest potential threats to our quality of life, according to the 2020 Vision Survey (77 percent and 79 percent respectively).


GFCA’s Transportation Committee is aiming for a minimum of 3,000 signatures. Your participation will give GFCA a strong and unified voice for a safe Georgetown Pike.
