Purpose of CTP 2.0 effort

With the exception of adding a pedestrian element, the format of the CTP maps has

been basically unchanged since 2001.

Things have changed over the last 15 years:

• Complete Streets

• STI / prioritization

• Changes to online mapping applications

• Customer feedback (external/internal)

There is a strong desire to optimize limited resources and improve customer

service.
