SRTC’s Policy Board meets for its regularly
scheduled monthly meeting this Thursday, June 13 at 1 p.m. The meeting
will be immediately preceded, starting at 11:30 a.m., by a brown bag lunch
session to discuss development of SRTC’s Metropolitan Transportation Plan,
Horizon 2040.

Horizon 2040 is a long-term, multimodal “blueprint” for
transportation aimed at meeting the mobility needs of the area through the year
2040. It is based on projections for growth in population, housing and jobs and
takes into consideration every mode of transportation. The strategies in
Horizon 2040 will be instrumental in sustaining and growing the quality of life
and economic health of our region.

Specifically,
the brown bag session will give staff an opportunity to discuss with the Board
a scenario analysis process used to help develop portions of Horizon 2040. This
process uses land use and financial scenarios to identify potential future
projects and programs to improve key area transportation corridors in the
future.

More
information and the first three draft chapters of Horizon 2040 can be found at https://www.srtc.org/mtp_2040.html.
 

The public is
welcome to attend both sessions and, as always, there will be opportunity at
the Board meeting for public comment on transportation-related topics.

meeting agenda is here.
