What is Public Involvement? Public involvement is the process of involving the public in the early stages of the transportation planning process
through completion. Public involvement is a critical component in the transportation planning process.
Through meaningful consideration and input from interested citizens, needs from all modes of the public transportation system become a shared mission with technical planning staff and policy makers. For the transportation community, involving the public in planning and project development poses a major challenge. The Montgomery MPO’s transportation public involvement goals, policies, and procedures are described in the Public Involvement Plan or P.I.P.
Goals:
The goals of the Montgomery MPO public involvement process include:
- Raise the level of understanding of the transportation planning process in the MPO transportation study area and identify how interested citizens can
become involved.
- Provide the public with opportunities for involvement in the transportation planning process.
- Identify and involve traditionally underserved communities (those communities with high concentrations of minority, low-income, or elderly populations) in
the transportation planning process.
- The Montgomery MPO’s public involvement goals, policies, and procedures are described in the Public Involvement Plan or P.I.P.
