Got five minutes? You can help shape ADOT’s Long-Range Transportation Plan
Interactive online survey available until Nov. 11 lets you rank what’s most important
PHOENIX – In transportation, ADOT is constantly looking ahead.
What needs will emerge over the next 25 years? What new technologies will influence how our transportation system operates? How will we fund necessary improvements?
One of the ways the Arizona Department of Transportation looks to the future is “What Moves You Arizona,” the Long-Range Transportation Plan we up-dated every five years. They need your input to do that. ADOT has developed an interactive online survey that’s easy and engaging. It gives you the opportunity to rank six transportation priorities: preservation, expansion, safety, technology, accessibility, and maintenance and operations.
You get a budget and determine how much of it you’d allocate for each priority.
Then you decidetradeoff scenarios that further define your priorities.
This survey lets you experience what we face as transportation planners: setting priorities and making difficult choices with limited resources.
Those who’ve participated so far have ranked safety and expansion highly. And when it comes to managing funds, preservation and expansion get the most dollars for transportation investments.
It only takes a few minutes and can be completed on a computer, smartphone or tablet.
A Spanish-language version of the survey is also available via the link.
While ADOT’s Long-Range Transportation Plan isn’t project-specific, it does identify investment priorities based on current and projected transportation funding over the next 25 years.
It’s up to the public, policymakers and communities to tell ADOT what’s important to them throughout the long-range planning process, and to prioritize projects and funding.
Visit azdot.gov/WhatMovesYouArizona for more information on ADOT’s Long-Range Transportation Plan and to leave a comment. The website also lists study milestones, including a full summary of 12 workshops held earlier this year around the state.
The final version of the plan is expected to be complete in early 2017.
