Duane Morris partner David E. Watson will be moderating a panel discussion at the San Diego Association of Governments' (SANDAG) 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Update, to be held on Thursday, September 23, 2010, in San Diego, California. The program begins at 7:30 a.m. and concludes at 9:15 a.m.
About the Program
SANDAG has embarked upon its required, periodic update of the region's comprehensive transportation plan. Composed of elected officials from its member agencies, SANDAG is the region's metropolitan planning organization, which plans, programs and allocates transportation funds, among other regional roles. The RTP is vital to the region. The current 2007 RTP includes $57 billion in improvements through 2030.
This RTP Update takes on new significance. It must respond to Senate Bill 375, which is a new state law mandating better coordination of regional transportation, land use, and housing planning to implement greenhouse gas reduction measures required by Assembly Bill 32. Additionally, SB 375 provides incentives for local governments and developers to plan and build more sustainably.
Please visit www.sandag.org to learn more about the preparation of the 2050 RTP. The C-3 board will be participating in the development of this influential plan, which is scheduled for adoption in July 2011.
