Genesee Transportation Council Seeks Public Comment

The Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) is accepting public comments on its next operating plan and annual budget known as Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP.) A list of recommended transportation planning projects that GTC, its member agencies, and other municipalities in the 9-county Genesee-Finger Lakes Region will advance during the next fiscal year accompanies the document. The proposed plan and list of projects are available for public review and comment through February 12.


The types of work being recommended include active transportation plans, educational programming for school aged children, workforce development for clean transportation systems, reducing the transportation footprint in the center of Rochester, and other concepts to improve safety across all travel modes. Data-supported technical tasks such as land use monitoring, crash data analysis, and reviewing safety related assets are incorporated to inform future decisions and capital planning. The full list of candidate projects including descriptions, lead agency/sponsor, geographic location, and costs is available for public review.


People can visit http://www.publicinput.com/GTCUPWP, to review the draft, get more information and provide public comments in multiple ways. Individuals may submit comments, send email, text, leave a recorded voice message in any language, or send a letter to Genesee Transportation Council, 1 S. Washington St. Suite 520, Rochester, NY 14614.


People can submit comments via email to GTCUPWP25@publicinput.com, call 855-925-2801 code 10940 to leave a voice message, or text “UPWP25” to 73224 to launch a brief survey by text message.

Please contact GTC at (585) 232-6240 x217 or send an email to contactgtc@gtcmpo.org to access this information and participate in this process.


The deadline to submit comments is Wednesday, February 12, 2025. After GTC committees review and consider public comments, the GTC Board will consider the final UPWP at its February 27, 2025, meeting.


Background

The UPWP Development Committee guides the creation of the UPWP. The Committee consists of representatives from Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, and Wayne counties, the City of Rochester, New York State Department of Transportation, Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority, Genesee/Finger Lakes Regional Planning Council, and GTC staff.


The Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) guides transportation planning in the Genesee-Finger Lakes region, which includes Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, and Yates Counties. By federal law, every urbanized area of the country with a population of 50,000 or more people must have a formal planning organization for transportation known as a Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). GTC is the designated MPO for this region and is responsible for transportation planning and overseeing transportation investments.
