Public comment period open for transportation funding applications
The Metropolitan Council and the Transportation Advisory Board are asking for your comments on the Regional Solicitation and Highway Safety Improvement Program applications, which the board released for public comment on May 17.
The Regional Solicitation is one way the board and Council prioritize and invest in roads, bridges and transit, as well as biking and walking needs. Whether for existing infrastructure or new improvements, projects focus on outcomes like reducing crashes, expanding access to all travel modes, and improving air quality.
The Transportation Advisory Board also approves the federal Highway Safety Improvement Program funding. These projects promote safety by addressing design elements to reduce crashes, particularly those of a severe nature.
We will receive comments on the applications and instructions for the Regional Solicitation and Highway Safety Improvement Program through 5 p.m. on Tuesday, June 20.
Submit your comment for the Regional Solicitation and Highway Safety Improvement Program here.
