The Gainesville-Hall Metropolitan Planning Organization’s 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan has been recognized as one of the nation’s best planning documents, officials announced Wednesday. The Florida Department of Transportation, along with the Federal Highway Administration and the Florida Metropolitan Planning Organization Advisory Council, studied long-range transportation plans from 359 MPOs in the country, excluding Florida, and determined that Gainesville-Hall’s plan exemplifies long-range planning “best practices.” The plan “is a user-friendly document that uses appropriate language and text to communicate the plan to a wide audience,” states the Florida study.
