Goals and Objectives Goals and Objectives serve as the guiding principles of the plan. They will help determine the projects that are ultimately included in the plan. Will be the basis for developing the project evaluation criteria

2040 Needs Assessment Begins with the forecasting of 2040 conditions using the current transportation network Followed by development of alternatives – Road projects – Transit projects – Bike/Pedestrian projects – Operational projects

2040 Needs Assessment Ultimately the Bay County Transportation Planning Organization will develop a multi-modal Needs Plan for 2040 This will likely be a mix of transit, bicycle, pedestrian and roadway projects

Financial Resources What funding will be available and what new sources could be available? Projects can use Local, State, Federal or Private transportation dollars We will not have sufficient revenues to meet all of our needs Previous plan had $3.2 billion in needed projects - $370 million in available revenues

Cost Feasible Plan How do we set priorities within funding constraints? We will strive for a balanced plan that functions well as a mobility system.
