Millions of dollars come to northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan through various federal transportation programs. The Toledo Metropolitan Area Council of Governments (TMACOG) is inviting public comment on how to best invest in the region’s long range transportation plan: “On the Move: 2015-2045 Transportation Plan.”
TMACOG is charged with maintaining the long range transportation plan for Lucas and Wood counties in Ohio and southern Monroe County, Michigan. The plan is being updated for 2020 and the public is asked to provide input as users of the transportation system. The best plans serve everyone – commuters, bicyclists, freight haulers, and people who use public transit. TMACOG needs to hear from a wide range of users to build a system that works for us all.
All meetings are free and no registration is required. Meetings will include displays and maps of the existing and planned systems as well as a review of the current plan which is being updated.
One meeting is scheduled in Bowling Green, on Thursday, March 14, from 12 to 1:30 p.m., in the Wood County District Public Library, 251 N. Main St.
Everyone, even those who can’t attend a meeting, is invited to fill out a needs survey. It’s online at http://www.tmacog.org/onthemove/.
