A 20-Year Vision for Transportation in the Heartland
A Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) helps communities prepare for the future by improving transportation, supporting growth, protecting the environment, and meeting the needs of residents.
Adopted on March 11, 2026, the 2050 LRTP is performance based, financially constrained blueprint that connects goals to measurable outcomes and provides the required basis for programming projects, demonstrating fiscal constraint, coordinating with state and transit performance plans, and maintaining eligibility for federal transportation funding.

The LRTP 2050 Map Gallery provides an interactive way to explore the transportation, land use, safety, environmental, and community conditions that shape the Heartland region’s long-range transportation needs. These maps help illustrate existing trends, future growth patterns, areas of concern, and opportunities for investment across the region.
