Horizon 2050

Every four years, SRTC is required to develop and update the region’s long-range transportation plan, which is known as a Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). We are now starting the process of developing the newest edition of the plan, which will outline the Spokane region’s transportation needs through 2050. This plan incorporates many other projects and work done at SRTC , as well as projections of growth in our region.

Stay tuned as we develop this plan further!

In the next 20 years, what transportation efforts do you think should be prioritized?

Let us know!
