New routes for bicycles and pedestrians, denser housing near transit stops, and more frequent and reliable train service were the top three strategies chosen by more than 3,100 people who played the Mayor of Bayville this fall as part of the development of Plan Bay Area 2050, a long-range transportation and housing plan that will help chart a course for the Bay Area’s future over the next 30 years.
The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) received over 10,000 responses via the Mayor of Bayville online tool from residents of all nine Bay Area counties during November and December.
Participants were invited to prioritize and comment on proposed strategies for improving mobility, meeting the Bay Area’s housing challenges, sustaining economic growth and protecting the environment.
All told, residents in 84 of the Bay Area’s 101 cities and towns participated.
