East Palo Alto Community-Based Transportation Plan

Oprima aqui para Espaņol

The goal of the East Palo Alto Community-Based Transportation Plan is to develop a plan for transportation projects and services that will better serve the East Palo Alto community. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) is working with SamTrans, the City of East Palo Alto and San Mateo County City/County Association of Governments (C/CAG) to prepare a community-based transportation plan for East Palo Alto. Through a collaborative planning process with community members and agency stakeholders, this plan will present recommendations for improving transportation in the East Palo Alto community.

The plan will be available to the public and to public agencies at the local (city, school) county (SamTrans, Caltrain, C/CAG), and regional levels. The plan can be used by the City and other agencies to pursue improvements and will identify lead agencies that could implement the improvements and a potential funding scenario.

As part of the collaborative planning process, SamTrans, the City of East Palo Alto, C/CAG, and MTC will be facilitating three public community workshops to engage the public in developing the plan. The workshops will briefly outline the planning process and existing transportation services in East Palo Alto. Workshop attendees will then be invited to participate in smaller groups to identify transportation needs and potential solutions for possible incorporation in the draft plan.
