Vermont Long Range Transportation Business Plan

March 2009

The Vermont Long Range Transportation Business Plan (LRTBP) is the state’s overall multimodal transportation plan for bicycle and pedestrian facilities, highways and roadways, public transportation, railroads and airports. It is a comprehensive 25-year plan for the transportation system to provide economic efficiency, orderly economic development, safety and environmental quality. Required by federal law, the LRTBP guides development and investment in the transportation system through:

• Transportation goals and policies

• Transportation investment scenarios and an implementation framework

• Key initiatives to implement the vision and policies

The LRTBP both builds on and guides statewide multimodal and modal/topic plans and regional and local transportation system plans. Although the LRTBP does not identify specific projects for development, it provides a framework for prioritizing future transportation improvements and developing funding alternatives.
