2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan


The SMTC is currently in the process of creating a new 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP)! This plan (also referred to as a “long range transportation plan” or LRTP) describes the current state of our surface transportation system, examines anticipated trends, and lays out a vision for the future of our region’s transportation system. The SMTC is required to update this plan every 5 years, with our next MTP due in September 2025.

With historic growth heading to Central New York, what transportation investments should we make today that future generations will thank us for tomorrow? Watch the video for a look back at the past 25 years, and a review of some of the trends expected to impact our transportation system in the next 25 years.

MTP Public Engagement Survey
Between March and September 2024, over 350 people responded to the MTP Public Engagement Survey, providing feedback on how they get around the region, current issues, and opportunities they see for the future. This feedback will be incorporated into the 2050 MTP process as we think about the future needs in our region. Read the draft Survey Results Summary.
