Charlotte is one step closer to making a major investment in its transportation future.
Wednesday night, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) will vote on the proposed 2055 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) — a sweeping 30-year blueprint for transit and road projects across the region.
At the center of the plan: four major fixed-guideway projects, including significant light rail and rapid transit expansions. The proposed projects aim to address the city's explosive growth and increasing demands on infrastructure, with a focus on improving connectivity, reducing congestion, and creating more sustainable commuting options.
