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) through February 8. A list of proposed transportation planning projects recommended for funding accompanies the document.

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 2045 (LRTP.) Tasks range from active transportation plans that promote bicycling and walking to a railroad corridor plan that promotes economic development.

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.

Comments can be submitted via email to GTCUPWP22@publicinput.com. Call 855-925-2801 code 6465 to leave a voice message, or text “UPWP22” to 73224 to launch a short survey by text message. Call 585-232-6240 x218 to make other arrangements to access this information and participate in this process.

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 x217 or send email to contactgtc@gtcmpo.org to arrange for auxiliary aids or language services.

The deadline to submit comments is Tuesday, February 8, 2022.

 After GTC committees review and consider public comments, the GTC Board will consider the final UPWP at its February 24 meeting.
