CMAP invites you to have your say at a GO TO 2040 Invent the Future workshop. With interactive software and keypad polling, attendees will express preferences about real-world choices that will shape the GO TO 2040 plan—and the future of our region.
To accomodate 2.8 million new residents expected by 2040, our region has some urgent decisions to make in the very near future. We can'ts solve everything at once, so it's all about trade-offs:
- Should rapid growth outward continue? Or should we consolidate housing and jobs where infrastructure already exists?
- Should we emphasize road or transit—invest in both?
- How can we reduce energy use while also strengthening our region's economy?
