On October 1st the final public meeting was held on the proposed Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan. Comments on the plan can also be submitted online at: http://www.dot.state.tx.us/public_involvement/transportation_plan/default.htm
The Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan is the foundation for many planning efforts underway at TxDOT and includes the efforts of local, regional and federal transportation partners. This plan will provide a framework for developing and implementing a multi-modal transportation system through 2035, including highways, rail, water ports, airports, pedestrian and bicycle facilities, pipelines and Intelligent Transportation Systems. The plan also assures the state’s goals are consistent with federal priorities and guidelines.
