Public is Invited to Provide Input on Transportation Project Priorities

COLUMBIA, MO (March 10, 2014) - (Columbia, MO) - Located in Columbia, Missouri, the Columbia Area Transportation Study Organization (CATSO) serves the City of Columbia and Boone County. The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has asked CATSO to identify and prioritize projects important to our community.

 

The first step in this prioritization process is to obtain public input. Citizens are invited to take part in two surveys:

 

 


*Values Survey: MoDOT has established four key areas that Missourians have suggested are important to them--maintenance, safety, economic development, and connections and choices. The Values Survey asks participants to provide input on specific priorities within each of these key areas.



*Projects Survey: Participants are asked to share ideas for projects.


 

Both surveys are online at http://www.motransportationpriorities.com/catso.

 

A final prioritized project list is to be submitted to MoDOT in May. The list will be used in developing MoDOT's long-range plan and to determine what projects would be under taken if a 1-cent sales tax for transportation proposal is approved by voters in November, 2014. For more information on the project prioritization process, please contact the Missouri Department of Transportation at 1-888 ASK MODOT - (1-888 275 6636) or facilitation consultant Burns & McDonnell at (816) 333-9400.
