MM2045 and COVID-19
The MM2045 Team is reacting to and considering potential impacts on the State Long-Range Transportation Plan as a result of the current pandemic and its socioeconomic effects. Stakeholder engagement has been impacted the most so far, with the team shifting from in-person meetings to virtual meetings via webinars, digital town halls, and other web-based services to communicate with stakeholders and the public. The team is also considering other issues that could affect the plan, mostly from a trends point of view. Trends that were already occurring are now accelerating, such as e-commerce and work from home, while other developments related to freight transport, supply chain dependence, and advanced automation are relatively recent and may require some additional considerations.
