Transportation Futures Study online open house starts Nov. 16  

The County is growing and our travel needs are changing. How do we ensure our transportation system will sustain our wonderful quality of life in the coming decades? Join the conversation! Starting Monday, Nov. 16, visit www.WCTransportationFutures.org/openhouse to participate in the online open house.  Over the past decades, our transportation system has been pushed to its limits and is forecast to get worse. It pays to be proactive. The Washington County Transportation Futures Study (WCTFS) will identify alternative transportation investments and evaluate how well they address our future challenges and values important to the community. Your input on the types of investments we study and the challenges we need to consider are important to the success of this study. Visit the WCTFS website  for more information.  The online open house ends Dec. 13.

County staff do not schedule these meetings and do not attend them. For more information, see the Mandatory Neighborhood Meeting & Mailings Requirements.
