The Franklin County Regional Transportation Plan, which is updated every four years, helps to provide a clear vision of the county and prioritizes its needs in a context that is suitable for the rural nature of the region. This Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) update focuses on the importance of providing safe, efficient, and resilient mobility for residents and freight, while taking into account the rural character of the county.

The RTP specifically emphasizes the following goals:

  • preservation and improvement of the existing transportation system, while also maintaining the region’s scenic and natural resources
  • providing residents with transportation options to the singly-occupied vehicle
  • strengthening the local economy and industries, and
  • improving the region’s livability and resiliency.

Comments on the draft documents will be accepted from Saturday, May 27th through Friday, June 16th, 2023.
