The Washington Regional Network For Livable Communities Presents:=20

Smarter Growth and Transportation In the Washington Region:
How Will the Region's Proposed 25-Year Transportation Plan Measure Up?

Smarter growth calls for integrating transportation and land use planning.=
=20
Billions of dollars are allocated by the region's jurisdictions through
the update of the long-range regional transportation plan.  Will the new
plan foster alternatives to the automobile, reduce traffic congestion, and
discourage loss of farms and forests?  Will it help direct needed
resources to the inner suburbs and the urban core?  Three elected
officials from inside the Beltway and local alternative transportation
experts will comment, then participate in a panel question and answer
discussion:=20
