Metropolitan Transportation Planning

Metropolitan Transportation Planning is the process where city and regional officials, planners, and the public work together to develop strategies for moving people and goods efficiently within a metropolitan area. It involves analyzing current transportation systems, forecasting future needs, and creating plans to improve roads, public transit, biking, and walking options. The goal is to ensure transportation is safe, reliable, sustainable, and meets community needs over time. This planning helps prioritize projects and secure funding, aiming to reduce congestion, improve mobility, and support economic growth across the region.
