The Public Priorities Workshop will provide details about the LRTP and will feature interactive exercises to review potential future multi-modal (highway, roads, transit, freight, bicycle and pedestrian facilities) transportation strategies and proposed alternatives that may be included in the plan. Participant feedback will be used to help guide transportation planning decisions for the next 25 years. This workshop will be open-house style with no formal presentation. Attendees may come and go at their convenience.

MORE ABOUT THE 2050 LRTP
The 2050 LRTP is a 25-year plan that will guide transportation system decision-making for the Grand Island area and will provide a list of transportation projects that meet future regional needs. The LRTP will be developed through public input and a technical analysis of how all modes of transportation perform including highways, streets, transit, freight, bicycle and pedestrian facilities. GIAMPO will not only analyze how the system operates today but will also forecast conditions for the next 25 years. The final 2050 LRTP will include strategies, and a prioritized list of projects based on anticipated funding, the results of technical analyses and community preferences of Grand Island area residents.
