Visualize 2045 is the federally required long-range transportation plan for the National Capital Region created by the Council of Governments. It identifies all regionally significant transportation investments planned through 2045 plus those not yet funded. It also provides detailed analysis to help decision-makers and the public “visualize” the future.
Fall will bring open houses throughout the region for folks to learn more about the process. Land use decisions are tied directly to how we travel from place to place in MoCo and the region as we saw when the COG Re-re-re studied the Potomac Bridge project last year. That study yielded some hard and fast recommendations about partnering land use and transportation policies with land conservation goals - based on data that unequivocally says that we can't build out way out of gridlock with more roads but lower cost options, like telework, ride sharing, aligning new housing to areas with available jobs - are all the best options to keep traffic flowing in our busy region.
Please plan to attend an Open House in Germantown on September 12 4-7 at the Upcounty Citizens Service Center
