ACTION PLAN

In addition to the policy, program, and facility recommendations discussed in this section, it is vital to the success of this plan that the Town of Morrisville continues to work with and educate local citizens and businesses. While public support can encourage implementation, opposition can significantly delay a project.

Advocacy at the regional and state levels will also be essential as Morrisville seeks to fund and implement the action items identified in this plan. CONCLUSION The Town of Morrisville Comprehensive Transportation Plan provides a vision for transportation recommendations that considers existing and future needs and priorities for all travel modes. The creation of this Action Plan helps staff and elected officials advocate for projects and policies that will have the greatest positive impact to the Town. The Town has many identified transportation needs, and fully funding and implementing the recommendations will take a number of years.

The Town will also continue to monitor emerging needs and changes in the way projects can be funded and implemented. Project priorities will be reassessed through subsequent updates to this plan. This dynamic process will help the Town of Morrisville continue to effectively address its transportation needs both now and into the future.
