Paving the way for the future of transportation in the state, the Texas Transportation Commission adopted the “Connecting Texas 2050,” long range transportation plan. This will serve as the cornerstone planning document to help guide priorities in the coming decades.
”Connecting Texas 2050” establishes the vision, goals, objectives, performance measures and strategic recommendations for the state’s multimodal transportation system through 2050. It identifies three key performance goals--safety, preservation and mobility--along with three strategic goals--connectivity, economic vitality and stewardship.
“As we look to the years ahead, this plan will help us build upon our transportation system,” TxDOT Executive Director Marc Williams said. “With a growing population and new technologies changing how we move, these goals will help us plan for decades to come and connect future generations of Texans.”
