MOTION TO RECOMMEND THE SOUTHEAST FLORIDA TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL (SEFTC) APPROVE the 2045 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP)

Approval of this item will finalize the required five-year update of the Southeast Florida Regional Transportation Plan, ensure state compliance, and address regional transportation issues on behalf of the residents of this region

In October 2017, Broward MPO took over the responsibility as the project management team of the 2045 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The Regional Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (RTTAC) serves as the formal 2045 RTP Steering Committee supported by the Southeast Florida Transportation Council's (SEFTC) other advisory committees. Since the start of the 2045 RTP, the project management team has been working with the SEFTC and its advisory committees as well as the MPOs within the Miami Urbanized Area to obtain feedback, input, and data for development of the final Plan. The resulting draft 2045 RTP is the culmination of these efforts and lays out policy changes to achieve the vision set forth in the RTP and match transportation needs with federal and state funding. 

The project management team presented the 2045 RTP to the RTTAC on May 13, 2020. Comments received have been addressed and incorporated into the 2045 RTP as appropriate. An overview of the comments received and how they were addressed as part of the final document will be provided at the meeting. Once approved by the RTTAC, the 2045 RTP will be presented to the SEFTC on August 7, 2020 for final approval.
