UTRC and the NYC Department of City Planning are co-ordinating with NYMTC staff to hold the open-houses to continue the public involvement process for the development of the 2040 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). These open-houses will be held in each of the counties and boroughs in the NYMTC region. The information gathered at these open-houses will be used in conjunction with feedback received from the other outreach eff orts to help shape the 2040 RTP. The public is invited and encouraged to attend and participate in the open-houses. In additon, UTRC has also initiated a web-based outreach for NYMTC for optimal public outreach through the Regional Planning website and a virtual townhall meeting website “MindMixer” which allows people to input their ideas on the transportation issues within NYMTC region. The user friendly website allows people to share an already submitted idea on diff erent social media platforms.
