Waverly, Ohio, Regional Transportation Planning Organizations (RTPO) were created by the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) to assist with planning and providing input from local stakeholders on upcoming transportation budgets and plans. RTPOs help to build a robust regional transportation system. The Ohio Valley Regional Development Commission (OVRDC) is one of six RTPOs in Ohio serving different geographic regions of the state. Every five years, RTPOs prepare a Comprehensive Transportation plan for their region. It is time for the plan update, and the Draft 2045 Comprehensive Transportation Plan is now ready for public comment and feedback.
The resulting 2045 Comprehensive Transportation Plan provides an opportunity to coordinate economic and community development with transportation planning efforts and to enhance regional cooperation and communication.
