The Move Skagit 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (Move Skagit 2050) is a multimodal long-range plan that establishes the strategic framework for meeting the Skagit region’s existing and future transportation needs. Developed through extensive coordination with affected jurisdictions and public input, Move Skagit 2050 provides a “tool box” to facilitate cooperation and maximize resources to jointly select transportation projects and programs for regional funding and implementation through 2050.
Move Skagit 2050 addresses state requirements for a regional transportation plan and federal requirements for a metropolitan transportation plan in one consolidated plan. It provides a long-range look into the Skagit region’s transportation needs and includes transportation projects and strategies to meet those needs. Included in Move Skagit 2050 is a financial assessment of transportation finance in the Skagit region, forecasting revenues and expenses over the planning period to assist in determining what the region can reasonably expect to fund to address regional needs. Financial strategies are identified in Move Skagit 2050 as tools that may be used to raise additional funds for existing and future transportation needs.
