An update of the Metropolitan Transportation Plan for the Naugatuck Valley Planning Region & Central Naugatuck Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization is almost finished. Three draft chapters are now available on the NVCOG website for the public to review in advance of public comments that people can make in February. One is the executive summary, another is the regional profile, and the third is on transportation issues and goals.

The new plan will identify the region’s transportation needs, lay out a vision for transportation to the year 2050, and establish steps to achieve those goals.

Public comment is crucial to this process and will help shape the final document. A formal comment period will begin in February, but NVCOG is happy to receive comments at any time. Please send comments to contactus@nvcogct.gov, or you can call our offices at (203) 757-0535.
