Connecting Communities, Policies, and Programs

The FTP is more than just a plan; it's a regional approach that aims to connect communities, policies, and programs across the state.

Why Update the Florida Transportation Plan?

Florida is a dynamic state, continuously growing and evolving. To ensure our transportation system remains efficient, safe, and sustainable, the FTP is periodically updated to reflect these changes.

Here are some key reasons why updating the FTP is so important:

1. Enhancing Safety: Safety is the FDOT’s top priority. By updating the FTP, we can identify areas where we can further improve safety and develop strategies to reduce accidents on our roads.
2. Engaging the Community: Updating the FTP is a collaborative effort that involves input from stakeholders, communities, and the public. This engagement ensures that the plan reflects the needs and priorities of all Floridians.
3. Supporting Economic Growth: A well-functioning transportation system is vital for economic growth. The FTP helps identify transportation initiatives that support economic development, job creation, and business growth.
4. Meeting Evolving Needs: The FTP allows us to reassess and adapt to Florida's changing transportation landscape. It ensures that our policies, projects, and programs align with current and future mobility needs.
5. Optimizing Resources: It's essential to identify initiatives and actions that have the most significant impact. The FTP provides a framework for implementing these actions effectively, ensuring that transportation goals and investments benefit the most people.
