The identified recommendations are intended to address the areas of concern and improve the transportation system over the 20-year planning horizon. This meeting was a chance for the public to learn more about the plan and share feedback on the proposed recommendations.

VISIONARY TRANSPORTATION NETWORK
A long-term vision of the transportation network within the GTATP study area was developed based on the anticipated development and corridor growth within the area. Both the visionary major street network (link to PDF) and visionary non-motorized network (link to PDF) are shown on the map below. The map illustrates the visionary networks at full build-out, which may not be developed for many decades to come. Establishing a visionary network helps ensure that future roads are developed in an efficient and logical fashion, consistent with community planning goals.
