BACKGROUND:
The SLRTP provides direction for Michigan with an aspirational multimodal vision, comprehensive goals/objectives, and actionable strategies to achieve that vision. The MM2045 team is seeking public and stakeholder input, including views on freight, rail, transit, passenger, aviation, bicycle, pedestrian, highway, and other transportation issues important to Michigan.

The plan is the first of its kind to incorporate an overall vision of the state's transportation system and includes two additional federally required documents: the State Rail Plan and State Freight Plan. These three documents combined into one will provide a streamlined vision of the transportation future in Michigan across all modes. MM2045 also developed Michigan's first statewide active transportation plan and statewide transit strategy.

In addition to the public meetings, comments can be submitted to the MM2045 team through Aug. 31 by e-mailing MDOT-Michi...@Michigan.gov, visiting the MM2045 website at http://MichiganMobility.org/find/comments.aspx, by phone or mail to:

Not much here that sees cycling as zero-emission transportation that needs to be supported.  A lot of focus on reducing vehicle congestion without seeing any connection between the two.
