View Flyer View Article View Bios
The focus of this workshop is on what Regional Councils and MPOs take into consideration in dealing with land-use, air and water quality, and growth in their long-range transportation plans. When regions expand their transportation network, changes occur that will affect land-use and air and water quality. This workshop will address the tools and processes being used to take these changes into consideration. Presentations will include case studies describing scenario planning, regional alternatives and visioning that can be addressed in a long-range transportation plan.
