Public hearing for the 2024 amendments to the Metro Vision Plan and the 2050 Metro Vision Regional Transportation Plan

Event Details

Wednesday, April 17, 2024 - 6:30pm

  • Public Hearing
  • The Regional Transportation Plan helps the Denver Regional Council of Governments and its many partners implement the shared aspirational vision of Metro Vision and sets the long-range vision and investment framework for the region’s multimodal transportation system.

    Between four-year updates to the Regional Transportation Plan, DRCOG staff have historically provided an opportunity for project sponsors to propose targeted revisions to fiscally constrained projects in the adopted plan in a process called cycle amendments. DRCOG initiated a cycle amendments process in September with a call for amendments.

    Concurrent with the cycle amendment process, staff are proposing amendments to Metro Vision performance measures and targets.

    Metro Vision fulfills DRCOG’s duty to make and adopt a regional plan for the physical development of the region. The Metro Vision plan does not replace the vision of any individual community; rather, it is a tool to promote regional cooperation on issues that extend beyond jurisdictional boundaries. The plan anticipates that individual communities will contribute to Metro Vision outcomes through different pathways and at different speeds for collective impact.

    As noted in Metro Vision, DRCOG may update and refine performance measures as needed, should improved methods and datasets become available.

    Explore the plan, learn how to provide comments, and submit feedback on your own time by visiting DRCOG’s virtual open house.

    A public hearing on the draft will be held on Wednesday, April 17.  You may also submit written comments before 5 p.m. Tuesday, April 16 by emailing Kellsie Forfar-Jones at kforfar-jones@drcog.org or mailing them to DRCOG Chair, 1001 17th Street, Suite 700, Denver, CO  80202.
