WisDOT has developed a draft of its long-range transportation plan for
the state of Wisconsin, called Connections 2030. This plan addresses all
forms of transportation over a 20-year planning horizon: highways, local
roads, air, water, rail, bicycle, pedestrian and transit. The overall
goal of the planning process is to identify a series of policies to aid
transportation decision-makers when evaluating programs and projects.
WisDOT will accept public comments on the draft plan
<http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/projects/state/2030-background.htm>
through February 27, 2009. The Web site will be updated often, so check
back regularly for plan updates, public input opportunities, and other
plan-related information.

WisDOT has scheduled a series of public meetings
