MANSFIELD — The Richland County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is developing its 2025-2050 Long Range Transportation Plan to improve and maintain multimodal transportation and roadway system over the next 25 years.   

As part of the planning process, RCRPC MPO has launched an online survey to seek the public’s input on transportation improvement locations, safety needs and priorities for investing the MPO’s resources in future transportation improvement needs across the county.

The survey asks questions including what traffic management strategies are most important, where budget priorities should be, what areas need attention in different priorities and how survey-takers rate their current accessibility of transportation.

Planning commission staff said the survey should take around 5 minutes and the results will help determine priorities, strategies and safety needs for the next 25 years.

Surveys will be open from April 1 through July 1.
