The flexibility inherent in many of the transportation funding sources – both controlled directly by SANDAG, and state and federal funds over which it has significant input – hold promise for improvement above and beyond the current Draft 2015 Regional Plan. By placing a greater priority on long-term GHG reductions to align with state goals and regional equity, SANDAG can ensure the region will attract maximum federal and state revenues and drive economic growth and overall sustainability. This will require SANDAG to reorient the transportation planning process to invest in projects and programs that will achieve these outcomes and create a plan that will enhance sustainability, regional equity, and long-term economic growth.
