The Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council (ITCTC) has developed an online survey to help gather information for the update of the Long-Range Transportation Plan for Tompkins County. The plan covers the 20-year period through 2045. The purpose and primary objective of the transportation plan is to develop a common vision for the future of transportation in Tompkins County. The plan addresses all forms of surface transportation – cars, freight, transit, inter-city buses, bicycles, walking, shared transportation (bike share, car share) and rail. Air transport is not covered in this plan.
The ITCTC welcomes input on the plan. “We would like to hear from you about ideas and issues related to transportation in our community. What works for you? What doesn’t? What ideas do you have to make things better?”, explained Fernando de Aragón, director of the ITCTC.
To help gather opinions, the ITCTC has developed a short online survey addressing different transportation topics. Survey results will provide information that will be used to develop policies and ideas to include in the transportation plan.
The online survey and other information on the Long-Range Transportation Plan update can be found on the ITCTC web site: https://www.tompkinscountyny.gov/itctc/lrtpupdate. The ITCTC will accept public comments through October 2024.
