Come out and voice your opinion on Transportation Matters

Transportation Planning
OPEN HOUSE

FY 2014-2017 Transportation Improvement Program
2035 Transportation Plan

March 18, 2013 from 4 PM – 7 PM
Citizens Square - Omni Room (Room #045)

The Northeastern Indiana Regional Coordinating Council (NIRCC) would like to invite all citizens to attend an open house to review the Draft Fiscal Year 2014-2017 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and the Draft 2035 Transportation Plan (long range plan).  The Draft Fiscal Year 2014-2017 TIP includes transit, highway, pedestrian and bicycle projects funded with federal funds in Allen County during the next four years. This public notice, and time established for public review and comment on the Transportation Improvement Program, satisfies the program-of-projects notice requirements of the Federal Transportation Administration Urbanized Area Formula Program (Section 5307) for the Fort Wayne Public Transportation Corporation/Citilink.

The Draft 2035 Transportation Plan has been updated to reflect the future needs of the urbanized area. The Transportation Plan includes transit, highway, pedestrian and bicycle improvements. Staff will be present to answer questions and take any comments.  We encourage you to attend. 

If you are unable to attend and wish to review the Draft Fiscal Year 2014-2017 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) projects or the Draft 2035 Transportation Plan Projects, you may visit our office where material will be available for review following the March 18th Open House. You may also view the materials on our website (NIRCC.com). 

You may send comments by mail or e-mail to the locations listed below.  The intent of the open house is to solicit input and comments from the public regarding the documents. NIRCC will accept comments through March 31, 2013. There will be an additional formal comment period later this spring. More information regarding the upcoming spring comment period will be forthcoming.
