Goals used for transportation planning!
Below are the proposed list of goals and objectives for planning in the Gaston - Cleveland - Lincoln area. These are used throughout transportation planning studies to ensure future projects align with the region's priorities.
Feedback for the Goals and Objectives closed on March 2nd, 2025 and is currently under review.
Goal #1
1. Provide a safe, reliable, and resilient transportation system for the movement of people and goods by multiple modes while promoting innovative, cost-effective solutions to address concerns.
a) Identify resources to preserve existing transportation systems and assets.
b) Designate resources to address known or potential high-crash areas for highway, transit, and non-motorized modes.
c) Support efforts and affordable projects to increase walking, bicycling, multi-modal, and transit use in order to reduce the number of vehicles traveling at high speeds.
d) Improve transportation security and the system’s resiliency by developing an interconnected network that offers multiple routes and modes of travel.
e) Support the development and application of new technologies in the pursuit of safety, reliability, and resilience.
