The LRTP includes all current transportation modes—including roads, bicycle paths, sidewalks, public transit, rail, and air—as well as potential modes such as high-speed rail. It must include transportation projects for which there will be funding in the next 25 years but can also include projects that do not have anticipated funding. CUUATS staff invites residents to dream big about their future transportation system and appreciates the community’s help in this effort to gather public comments regarding regional transportation planning processes.
