PennDOT wants to hear from you. The department has opened its draft 2050 Freight Movement Plan for public comment. The plan guides freight transportation and infrastructure investments across the state through 2050.
An up-to-date plan also keeps Pennsylvania eligible for federal funding under the National Highway Freight Program after expected federal reauthorization.
“Pennsylvania is the front door to the northeast, so it's critical that we hear from you about how we invest in the movement of freight through our communities.”
Mike Carroll, PennDOT secretary
- Update cycle: every four years
- Next step: final plan goes to the Federal Highway Administration by Dec. 19
