“Recalibrating Transportation: 2030 Roadmap to an Efficient, Equitable, and Safe Future for all Coloradans” establishes our 2030 vision of a transportation system that is efficient, equitable and safe for all Coloradans without needing to rely on a car; a system that preserves Colorado’s environmental health; and a system that provides access to affordable housing, employment and education.

That includes:
Moving forward, transportation planning and project selection needs to be recalibrated to meet GHG reduction requirements and ensure transportation investments are expanding sustainable transportation options. We believe these five steps will help bring transportation investments into alignment with community needs while reducing GHG pollution:
