The Office of Equitable Transit and Mobility concludes a nearly two-year planning process addressing transportation needs in Richmond with the release of the Richmond Connects Draft Action and Strategic Plan

Richmond, VA – According to the city officials, the following plan reportedly includes feedback from over 20,000 local residents with diverse backgrounds via online surveys, telephone town halls, and targeted in-person outreach. 

City officials also said that the plan works to close barriers and gaps in accessibility and toward an equitable transportation network where all residents can thrive.

Participants identified and defined transportation needs and provided potential projects and programs to resolve identified issues.

Community input is needed to move the project forward. The draft plan will be available for review and comments through December 5.

Comments can be submitted directly onto the online document.

The next step includes adopting the priority projects and amending the Master Plan to include Richmond Connects as an addition to the chapter on future connections.
