Spend Your Lunch Hour With Our Experts

How Are We Planning For a Better Future?

Spend your lunch hour with MetroPlan Orlando on August 21, as we explore how the community and environment influence planning for the future of transportation in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties. We’ll focus on the ways transportation interacts with health and wellness, housing supply and affordability, and our natural environment. Learn how we coordinate with local leaders and experts in these fields to ensure the region’s long-range plans do their part to help create a more connected and livable Central Florida. After the presentation, we’ll also hear from you and answer your questions.

Registration is required for this online presentation, and it is free and available up to the start time.

This is the second of three online information presentations leading to the adoption of the 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). If you missed the first webinar, you can watch it here on our YouTube channel. The final webinar in this series, scheduled for September 11, will explore multimodal needs and how projects are identified and incorporated into the MTP.

How does the MTP fit in?

The factors we discuss in these webinars are crucial to our work in developing the 2050 MTP, which establishes the long-range vision for transportation in Central Florida. This plan is updated every five years to reflect the changing dynamics of the region and identify current and future transportation needs. The 2050 Plan is currently going through this process. We are examining the existing transportation system, establishing goals and objectives, and gathering public input.

Your ideas are a big part of the Journey to 2050. We have a variety of public outreach activities between now and December, when the 2050 Plan will go before the MetroPlan Orlando Board for approval. You can engage with us in many ways between now and then.

Please mark your calendar for the MTP public meeting on Monday, September 29. There, we will present our draft vision and will offer information stations for each section of the 2050 Plan — including public transit, active transportation, and safety — where we can answer your questions and gather your feedback.
