The Idaho State Transportation seeks input on how to identify both future funding for projects through 2040 but also on future technology, demographics, and economics that will shape Idaho.
IST announced two public meetings, an online discussion and stated more meeting will be held around the state in the future. The first two will be at 3:00 p.m. and at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, March 7, at the Targhee Regional Public Transportation Authority, 1810 W. Broadway in Idaho Falls.
The first meeting has been set aside for gathering feedback from professional stakeholders in the transportation industry. General comments from the public will be gathered at the evening meeting. IDT said Public comments and input are important to the planning effort.
