Help us plan for the Middle Georgia region’s transit future! Join us for our first public meeting November 2, 2023.
Macon, GA – October 16, 2022
The Middle Georgia Regional Commission (MGRC) in coordination with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has initiated the process of creating a Regional Transit Development Plan (TDP). The TDP will help identify transit needs and opportunities and inform future transit system investments across the 11 counties making up the Middle Georgia region. A regional TDP will focus on local transportation issues and concerns, consider regional needs and travel patterns, identify opportunities for the MGRC to pool resources and staff, and identify implementable transit projects.
We are calling for community input beginning with the November 2, 2023, public meeting at the Middle Georgia Regional Commission office, located at 175 Emery Highway, Suite C, Macon, GA, 31217. The public meeting will follow an open house format, allowing participants to drop in anytime between 4pm and 6pm to review project information and provide input at their own pace. Brief presentations will be given at 4:30pm and 5:30pm. The project team members will be collecting input on transit needs and opportunities in the region. Additionally, members of the project team will be available to answer questions or provide more information.
A community survey will launch with the public meeting on November 2 and be open through December 1, 2023. Community members can access the survey at the following link: https://regionaltdp-gdot.hub.arcgis.com/pages/mgrc. The brief survey focuses on identifying the region’s transit opportunities and concerns as well as opportunities for cross-county collaboration.
