Outreach
Moving Forward 2055 is being developed collaboratively with NYMTC member agencies, stakeholders, and members of the public – like you!
Both virtual and in-person events have offered members of the public the opportunity to provide input that will help guide the development of the Plan. These have included in-person pop-up events across all three NYMTC sub-regions, virtual focus groups, and a series of online topical forums.
