TranPlan 21 was Montana's first statewide multimodal transportation plan. The plan, published in February of 1995, identified the most pressing transportation issues facing Montana, evaluated future transportation concerns, and established the policy goals and actions that will guide the state's transportation system into the 21st Century. The intent of TranPlan 21 was to avoid wish list planning by establishing a clear set of policy goals and priorities for addressing statewide transportation needs, based upon the funding levels that Montana can afford. The process of identifying needs, establishing goals, and setting priorities involved careful technical analysis, policy deliberation, and the active involvement of transportation providers and users throughout Montana. TranPlan 21 covered a twenty-year planning period. Although it may take many years to implement all of the policy actions identified in the plan, a good portion of the actions have already been implemented and a majority of are being work on. The goal of the TranPlan 21 Annual Report is to monitor system characteristics, and report on the status of TranPlan 21 actions as well as the MDT offices responsible for implementing each action. |
