New Business
 
a.
Motion/Recommendation. 2018 Billings Urban Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), Scott Walker, Transportation Coordinator. The changes to the LRTP include the addition of projects identified in the Downtown Area Traffic and Circulation Study.  This project includes the one-way to two-way street conversion projects for North 29 th Street and North 30 th Street between 6 th Avenue North and Montana Avenue, an existing couplet in downtown Billings.  Since the Montana Department of Transportation also identifies North 29 th and North 30 th as Urban Routes, action by the Montana Transportation Commission is required to approve City construction on these roadways.  To complete this approval at the State level, the Billings MPO must amend its LRTP to ensure these roadway projects are properly identified in the Plan.
