MAPA needs the public’s help in ranking the top three roadways identified by residents for potential projects which would receive federal funding in the coming years. The rankings are part of the development process for MAPA’s 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP).
The roadways selected are based on feedback from surveys and meetings where the public was asked to prioritize goals and strategies for the region’s transportation needs.
To engage the public, MAPA will be attending various events throughout the region to gain input on the top strategies and roadways. The locations are as follows:
