New Visions is the official transportation policy for the
Capital District and guides CDTC's planning activities and funding priorities
for the use of federal-aid. It provides
the basis for legislative discussions regarding funding, elimination of
jurisdictional barriers and other subjects.
The New Visions Plan is not
the last word on the issues contained in the plan, however. Continuous refinement and step-wise
implementation will serve as the basis for revisions to the plan in coming
years. Over the next fifteen months, CDTC
will explore the significant demographic, social and technological changes that
can be expected to dramatically change travel demand and transportation
technology over the next 30 years. A
New Visions 2030 is planned for adoption by December 2001.
A considerable amount of information was gathered, analyzed, and
presented in the course of developing New Visions, implementing the plan over the
past three years and developing the New Visions 2021 plan. The following
reports provide additional information about relevant topics or are core CDTC
documents. They are available, free of
