Working Together & Winning

As our region continues to grow, it will be more important than ever for us to coordinate plans as a region and agree on priorities for an integrated, multimodal regional network. Thanks to the Sun Coast Transportation Planning Alliance partnership, the region has moved forward on many high-priority projects in each county.
