Regional transportation priorities

What are the top transportation issues in the next 5-10 years?

We support transportation policies projects that accommodate our rapidly growing population, create opportunities for commerce, and enhance quality of life. 

Values 

  • Collaboration and coordination. Governmental entities should align their project priorities and thoroughfare planning efforts. 
  • All-of-the-above. We should invest in all viable forms of transportation: highways, roads, trails, public transit, and utility infrastructure. 
  • Long-term vision. Being proactive will allow us to maximize the efficiency of public resources.
