MRPC Regional Transportation Plan Workshop November 14th

The Montachusett Regional Planning Commission (MRPC) would like to announce a series of meetings that will focus on the 2024 update of the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The Regional Transportation Plan provides guidance to local and state officials in deciding how to spend federal and state transportation funds as well as outlines the transportation priority needs for the region. The plan is a long-range document for the maintenance and improvement for the road, highway, bicycle and pedestrian, bridge, rail, transit, freight and airport systems of the Montachusett Region over the next 20 years. The RTP is a federally mandated document that is developed through studies, discussions with local officials, boards and commissions and public comment/outreach. While the RTP may cover a 20-year period, it is updated every four years so it can be adapted to emerging needs and trends.

The meeting for Townsend is on November 14th from 10-11AM. Please view attached flyer for more information.
