The Year 2040: It sounds so far away. Why even think about it? But, when the goal is making sure our transportation system meets our future needs, the time to start planning is now.
The New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) has begun a comprehensive and collaborative process to develop a 2040 Statewide Long-Range Multimodal Transportation Plan (SLRP). The plan will provide a vision for how New Mexico’s transportation system can support the well-being of our residents and visitors now and in the future.
This website includes a summary of the project, a blog with current information about the plan, and locations and times of public meetings. You can also visit the New Mexico Department of Transportation Planning website for more information.
Where are we now? What is the existing condition of the transportation system?
Where do we want to go? What is the vision for the future of the system?
How are we going to get there? What investments will help us achieve the vision?
What will it take? What resources – staff and financial – are required?
Public meetings and information stations at public events.
While our view is set at the horizon – where we’ll be in 2040 – we know that the reality of transportation for you is how you are affected today. Please join us as we begin to examine the existing and future needs of transportation in New Mexico and get a better understanding of how much it will cost..
