JATSO seeking citizens' input about future transportation projects
JOPLIN, Mo. — The Joplin Area Transportation Study Organization (JATSO) is updating the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) with the launch of an online survey.
As the transportation planning agency for the Joplin metropolitan area, JATSO's goal is to provide regional mobility. The MTP helps guide the agency with long-range planning on how to improve the transportation system.
Every five years the MTP must be updated. Now, JATSO has released a survey to address safety perceptions, specific problem areas, and suggestions for improvement, the organization said.
The public can access the transportation survey here.
Public open houses will also be hosted in Joplin, Webb City, and Carl Junction, where community members can provide input for the regional transportation system. These open houses will include maps and graphics with detailed information about the project.
