Opportunity to participate in survey: How should we grow? Let’s plan for better transportation in Lee County!



The Lee MPO has been working along with City and County staffs to identify potential growth scenarios for Lee County. Now is your opportunity to share your thoughts. We encourage you to take the survey below and share it broadly.  For the future of Lee County, it's important that your voices are heard.  Thanks!

How should we grow? Let’s plan for better transportation in Lee County!


Please take the Lee County MPO survey at www.Lee2040.metroquest.com.

Nearly 400,000 new residents are expected to reside in Lee County by the year 2040. To address the transportation needs of our growing communities, the Lee County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is currently exploring ways to reduce the number of vehicle trips and increase travel options. This involves looking at where future residents and jobs may locate in Lee County over the next 25 years. 

To do this, conceptual growth scenarios are being presented in an online survey. The MPO is asking the public to share their ideas about new ways to grow relating to future transportation investments.  The survey only takes a few minutes to complete and is available at www.Lee2040.metroquest.com now through March 2014.  Please share this survey link with your colleagues and friends.

Public input will be used by the MPO Board members to help select a preferred approach to future growth and the corresponding transportation system needed to support that growth. This is a first step in developing the Lee County 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan.  To learn more about the scenarios project, visit www.leempo.com/LandUseScenarios_000.shtml.
