Thoroughfare Development Plan

Streets provide for the movement of people and goods to, from and through the City and are carefully planned to ensure adequate circulation and access. Transportation system planning is done through the City’s Thoroughfare Development Plan, a long-range plan that identifies the location and type of roadway facilities that are needed to meet projected long-term growth within the City. The Thoroughfare Plan serves as a tool to enable the City to preserve future corridors for transportation system development as the need arises. It is not a list of construction projects but rather identifies proposed general alignments for roadways and provides guidelines for the design of each type of roadway.
