Tonight’s your chance to weigh in on Gwinnett’s transportation future

Tonight’s your first chance to be heard (again) about the future of transportation in Gwinnett County.

The county began work to update its comprehensive transportation plan — which will steer its transportation investment through 2040 — last year, holding public meetings, conducting surveys and more.

It’s now embarking on a second round of public meetings to solicit community feedback on the goals, potential projects and investments developed through the first part of the process.

The first meeting is at 5:30 p.m. today at Lilburn City Hall.

“At the meetings, attendees can pick up a ‘passport’ to visit various stations to learn about possible transportation options in their area and countywide, and offer comments,” the county said in a press release.

The comprehensive transportation plan is a different undertaking from the transit study that Gwinnett Commission Chairman Charlotte Nash recently announced. That study will focus exclusively on potential transit improvements.

A total of six public meetings regarding the transportation plan have been scheduled. They are listed below.

The same information will be presented at each meeting.
