Marylands transportation in 2035: Plans have begun

Not well known is Marylands 20-year vision for transportation called the 2035 Maryland Transportation Plan (MTP). The final version will be released in January 2014 as part of the State Report on Transportation. In the meantime, the state is working on a draft 2035 MTP, to be released later this year for public comment.

The plans vision emphasizes sustainability, balance and a multimodal transportation system that supports the safe and efficient movement of people and goods. The goals and objectives cover community vitality, safety and security, quality of service, environmental stewardship, economic prosperity and system preservation. That is the order of priority based on public comments.
