Draft RTP 2050: Moving South Jersey Forward

For the region to receive federal funding, there must be a long-range regional transportation plan in place. The long-range plan details the ways the region aims to invest in the transportation system. It identifies the region’s long term needs and the policies, strategies, and projects that will address those needs. The next long-range plan, RTP 2050, will guide how over $5 billion in federal transportation funds will be spent in the region over the next 30 years.

El Bosquejo del Plan Regional de Transporte, RTP 2050 

La Organización de Planificación de Transporte de South Jersey (South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization, SJTPO) es la Organización de Planificación Metropolitana (Metropolitan Planning Organization, MPO) que está al servicio de los condados de Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland y Salem en el sur de Nueva Jersey. La SJTPO, fundada en 1993, sirve de recurso técnico, facilita el acceso a la financiación federal, y trabaja para brindar un enfoque regional para abordar la planificación del transporte y las cuestiones de ingeniería.

El bosquejo del RTP 2050 es un plan requerido por el gobierno federal, desarrollado cada cuatro años por la SJTPO, que identifica la visión a largo plazo para el sistema de transporte regional, y las metas, las estrategias y los proyectos dirigidos a cumplir con dicha visión. Además, el RTP 2050 indicará cómo se gastarán más de $5.000 millones en financiación federal para el transporte en la región en los próximos 30 años.
