Planning Sustainable Places
Our regional vision of vibrant, green and connected centers and corridors is central to both the Creating Sustainable Places initiative and to Transportation Outlook 2040, the region's long-range transportation plan.
MARC’s Total Transportation Policy Committee (TTPC) and the Creating Sustainable Places Coordinating Committee are joining forces in 2012 to launch Planning Sustainable Places, a combined initiative to provide communities with pre-development resources to advance sustainable projects in their corridors and centers.

A joint task group, with representation from both of these committees, will develop the criteria for eligibility and outline the award process. We expect to issue a call for projects in the latter half of 2012. Watch this space for more information.
