DCHC MPO

Area:

• Covers Durham County

Other MPO is CAMPO (Capital Area MPO)

This plan will be adopted jointly by both MPOs

Comprehensive Transportation Plan is by state requirement

The Met Transportation Plan is a subset of CTP, federally required

STIP funds MTP

State Transportation Improvement Plan (?)

MTP updated every 4 years

involved process, so after adopting start working on the next one

Received public feedback

Estimated population growth (300k to 500k for durham by 2050)

3 scenarios

• Plans & Trends Scenario

- Business as usual

• Shared Leadership Scenario

- We can do better

• All together scenario

- Balanced and equitable

!! Durham County Transit Plan implies tradeoff between BRT and county

Javiera:

Durham city council has representation on GoTriangle and on MPO

Durham should have a joint city and county transportation department (?)

Heidi:

Need good regional, and good local buses

Housing along commuter rail route study to help understand who rail will serve

According to this report, commuter rail has a good opportunity to serve a lot of lower income folks

BPAC good for first mile last mile

Aidil:

Helping get input for county transit plan and this MTP

Dale

Infrastructure bill, increase in highway, smaller increase in transit, large increase in rail budgets

County plan will determine the type of transit
