Emissions from cars and trucks account for 23% of greenhouse gas emissions locally and 27% of emissions nationally. One avenue to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions is through the St. Louis region's Long-Range Transportation Plan. The Plan offers a vision and priorities for the St. Louis transportation system including highways, bridges, public transit, bicycle and pedestrian routes, and serves as the framework for regional transportation decision-making and investments, such as the North-South Metrolink expansion and the Future64 project. Last year, the public had the opportunity to comment on the plan's Guiding Principles, and now public input is needed again, on the final plan. This year, a Transportation Equity Assessment was also conducted at the start of the planning process to inform the long-range plan. Join us to discuss the plan and how residents can have an impact on transportation decisions in the region.
