The 2030
Transportation Framework Plan was adopted by the Will County Board
on April 16, 2009. This document presents the latest renewal of the
Will County Transportation Plan. This update builds from and
amplifies previously developed transportation plans and studies.
This plan reflects a collaborative effort among
municipalities, townships, regional agencies, and the State of
Illinois. The Year 2030 Regional Transportation
Plan, being managed by the Chicago
Metropolitan Agency for Planning, has been used as a framework for
the current Will County plan. It is based on the same year 2020
population and employment forecasts. The Illinois
Department of Transportation (IDOT), Metropolitan
Rail (Metra), Pace
suburban bus service, and the Regional
Transportation Authority (RTA) provided assistance and direction
during the planning process. The county also asked each municipality,
township, and state agency to participate. Each agency was asked for
input and guidance throughout the process.
