ITHACA, N.Y. (WHCU) – Tompkins County is looking for input for its long-range transportation plan.

The plan will cover 20 years through 2045 and seeks to develop a broad vision for all forms of surface transportation, including public transit, cars, bikes, freight, shared transportation, rail, and walking.

Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council Director Fernando de Aragon wants to know what works, what doesn’t, and what could make it better.

The survey will be available through October 2024.
