2045 Metropolitan Transportation Plan Update
Bannock Transportation Planning Organization is updating the Metropolitan Transportation Plan. BTPO is evaluating the current conditions and identifying transportation issues within the Pocatello/Chubbuck area. The map will allow you to identify your transportation issues and concerns. BTPO will use this data to identify problems areas and focus our improvement recommendations for the next 25 years. BTPO is also gathering information on the growth scenario. The growth scenario describes where and what type of development best fits the plans to protect current investment in transportation and minimize the impact on the transportation system of future development. Additional information on Growth Scenario is available by click on "more instructions on the tool". To make a comment, select a location on the map where the issue or comment is describing (Place the pin a close to the location as possible). More instructions on the tool-
