Join PBC Countywide Transportation Master Plan Public Input Meeting in the Glades Area
Palm Beach County, in collaboration with its consultant, WSP USA Inc., is hosting a series of public meetings to present draft recommendations for the Countywide Transportation Master Plan (CTMP). Community members are invited to participate and help shape the future of transportation in Palm Beach County. Public participation is critical because residents are the experts on the challenges they experience every day. They know where congestion occurs, where intersections feel unsafe, where connectivity is lacking, and where improvements would have the greatest impact. The more voices that participate, the stronger, more representative, and more effective the final plan will be. Make sure your voice is heard.
