Agenda: | YOU are invited to a public meeting! to discuss the • Draft 2012 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) • Draft 2012-2015 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) • Draft 2012 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) • Draft 2011 Public Outreach Program (POP) For information purposes and in accordance with the Central Massachusetts Metropolitan Planning Organization’s (CMMPO) formal Public Outreach Program, the Central Massachusetts Regional Planning Commission (CMRPC) invites the public to attend meetings to discuss the above listed draft documents. In order to maximize the opportunity for public comment and suggestions, two public meeting sessions are scheduled for August 17, 2011 in Union Hall on the 2nd floor at Union Station, Worcester, MA. A daytime session will begin at 12:00 noon and an evening session will start at 6:00 PM. Both meetings will include a staff presentation and are considered excellent opportunities to learn about the region’s broad range of transportation planning efforts. Time will also be available for questions and answers. The 2012 RTP is a comprehensive multi-modal and intermodal document that addresses all major modes of transportation in the region, and includes chapters on demographics, the environment, livability, safety, security and a broad range of programs and analyses while recommending major improvement projects. The 2012-2015 TIP is the listing of all transportation projects in the planning region programmed to receive federal-aid funding, both highway and transit. The 2012 UPWP describes all CMMPO transportation planning activities anticipated within the region during the upcoming program year. Lastly, the 2011 POP refines the proactive public outreach procedures utilized by the CMMPO. All draft documents can be viewed on-line at www.cmrpc.org. Paper copies are available upon request at the CMRPC office at Union Station. The federally required 30-day public review and comment period established by the CMMPO in July will end on August 23, 2011. All written comments will be accepted until 4:00 PM on that day. (Comments pertaining to the Draft 2011 Public Outreach Plan only will be accepted until September 7, 2011.) CMMPO meetings are conducted in accessible locations and materials can be provided in accessible formats. If you would like special accommodations, such as an interpreter, please contact James Hanna at jhanna@cmrpc.org or (508) 459‐3338 for further information. |
