Genesee Transportation Council seeks public comment

The Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) is accepting public input on a draft of its next operating plan and annual budget known as Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) now through February 9. The UPWP lists the federally funded transportation planning activities that GTC, its member agencies, and other municipalities in the nine-county Genesee-Finger Lakes Region will advance during the next fiscal year. 

Transportation planning activities include specific projects and ongoing tasks that reflect the vision of the Long Range Transportation Plan 2040 (LRTP.) Tasks range from active transportation plans that promote bicycling and walking to a railroad corridor plan that promotes economic development.

People can visit http://www.publicinput.com/GTCUPWP, a dedicated webpage to review the draft, get more information, and provide public comments in a variety of ways. Individuals will have the opportunity to submit comments, send email, text, leave a recorded voice message in any language, at any time, or send mail to Genesee Transportation Council, 50 West Main Street, Suite 8112, Rochester, NY 14614.

People can submit comments via email to GTCUPWP@publicinput.com, call 855-925-2801 code 9009 to leave a voice message, or text the letters UPWP to 855-925-2801 to launch a short survey by text message.

Call 585-232-6240 to make other arrangements to access this information and participate in this process.

The deadline to submit comments is Tuesday, February 9, 2021.

After GTC committees review and consider public comments, the GTC Board will consider the final UPWP at its February 25, 2021 meeting.

GTC will provide accommodations for anybody who wishes to participate in this opportunity despite disability or proficiency in English. Please contact GTC at (585) 232-6240 or send email to contactgtc@gtcmpo.org to arrange for auxiliary aids or language services.
