Adequate funding is critical if the County want to capitalize on the strengths of its existing road network.
Funding comes from the federal, state and county levels.
But public support is also vital to getting the resources necessary to support the road network - and that means educating the public about the costs and benefits involved. Developing and maintaining relationships with other cities and counties will foster a sense of regionalism that could encourage more consistent planning throughout the metro area. Another aspect of cooperation mean obtaining the support of those individuals most affected by particular roadway improvements to ensure prompt implementation of plans. It could also reduce costs and still accommodate growth. But it requires a long-range vision and commitment.
