AUSTIN — TxDOT is holding a public meeting next week in Tyler to discuss the future of transportation in Texas. The meeting will be held at the Tyler Rose Garden Center Camellia Room at 420 Rose Park Drive in Tyler.
The Texas Transportation Plan 2050, or TTP 2050, will guide TxDOT’s planning and programming for the next 30 years and set long-range goals for all transportation modes — roadways, transit, pedestrian, bicycle and freight. The plan will also address some of the state’s biggest transportation challenges including a growing and aging population; urbanization; emerging transportation technologies (such as driverless vehicles); and limited funding.
