The third online community meeting on the Douglas County Comprehensive Transportation Plan will be held at 6-7:30 p.m. Oct. 6.

Douglas County is developing an update to the Douglas County Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP) that was last updated in 2009.

This plan will assess Douglas County’s existing and future multi-modal transportation needs, including roadways, bicycle/pedestrian facilities, transit services and freight considerations, according to a Douglas County statement.

The planning effort will produce a 30-year vision for multi-modal transportation investments.

They include a prioritized list of transportation improvements, a five-year action plan and recommendations that improve mobility, safety, connectivity and quality-of-life for Douglas County residents.
