LRTP 2050 Survey
Introduction
The MAPA 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) is a vision which guides future infrastructure projects in the Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Area. This planning initiative creates a vision for a stronger, safer, more vibrant region moving into the future.
Throughout 2016 and 2017 MAPA held a series of goal-setting workshops, popup meetings, and online surveys throughout the region building off of Heartland 2050 planning efforts and the Heartland Connections plans.
Several statistically significant regional polls and surveys have been conducted in recent years as part of regional planning efforts. The information garnered from these efforts has been used to guide the goals and strategies of both this Long Range Transportation Plan and ConnectGO.
In 2017 MAPA utilized the scenario planning conducted in MTIS to get feedback on the various types of investments that could be made in the MAPA region’s transportation system. Six initial scenario packages were developed to model what investing levels in different modes of transportation over the next 20 years would accomplish.
The initial phase of ConnectGO involved outreach to the Greater Omaha Chamber member businesses as well as the broader community. The Chamber began its outreach with the Metro Smart Cities Advisory Group, a cross-sector committee of civic leaders co-chaired by Omaha Mayor Jean Stothert and Werner Trucking CEO Derek Leathers.
The intent of the exercise was to evaluate and prioritize goals identified in past planning efforts throughout the region.
The previous input was used to develop the technical recommendations of the document. Giving your feedback for this survey will help determine how successful input gathering was.
