CAMPO hosting traffic-safety online open house

Public input is sought for two regional traffic and transportation plans designed to benefit six counties including Bastrop and Williamson.

The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization is hosting its second online open house through March 14 to collect feedback on roadway safety concerns and potential solutions, according to a release.

The regional safety action plan and the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan are both coordinated under the CAMPO umbrella.

Other counties that could benefit are Burnet, Caldwell, Hays and Travis.

The RSAP is designed to identify solutions that will enhance traffic safety, reduce and eventually eliminate fatal and seriousinjury crashes and improve transportation systems for pedestrians, cyclists, publictransportation users and drivers, with an emphasis on investment in vulnerable communities, officials said.

The RSAP will also include county-specific plans, organizers said.

The plan will be integrated into the overarching RSAP, ensuring a coordinated approach to safety across the region, according to officials.

A separate safety action plan for Travis County is being developed and will be folded into the RSAP, ensuring local insights and solutions are reflected in the regional strategy, according to the release.

In addition, CAMPO is also collecting feedback to inform the development of the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan, according to a release.

The 2050 RTP is a multimodal longrange transportation plan that will address transportation needs over the next 25 years for the six counties.

Planners said the initiative takes into consideration regional growth and anticipated funding to develop a network for the next several decades to include roads, transit, biking, walking and using technology to travel more efficiently.

Study information and commenting opportunities for both planning efforts are available at campotexas. org/get-involved.

Printed materials can be requested by calling 512-651-3964. A postage-paid envelope will be included to return the survey by mail.

Online materials, commenting opportunities and a listing of in-person outreach events are available at campotexas.org/getinvolved.
