(BALTIMORE – November 19, 2024) – The Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC), on behalf of the Baltimore Regional Transportation Board (BRTB), is undertaking scenario planning to explore various potential futures and their impacts on the Baltimore region. This initiative evaluates long-term risks and opportunities related to transportation investment and policy decisions, land use, housing, technology, the environment, and other topics. The objective is to identify strategies or policies that perform well across various scenarios, understand necessary adjustments, and assess impacts on equity. The findings will inform the 2027 Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), including updates to regional goals and strategies, how potential projects are evaluated, and policies to consider in the future. Additionally, it will highlight scenarios that require further study.
The survey will gather public input to develop possible futures, or scenarios, and different ways of setting goals and measuring progress. Community members are encouraged to share their thoughts via BMC’s Engagement Hub to help shape how we prepare for challenges and seize new opportunities for our transportation system.
BMC invites public participation, and individuals can share their thoughts in the scenario planning survey until Sunday, December 8.
