Momentum 2040

Maybe you’re fed up with the congestion on your daily commute through Polk County.

Perhaps you’d like to enjoy local gems like the Fort Fraser Trail but there aren’t sidewalks to safely connect you to it.

Or maybe your access to essential services like medical facilities, grocery stores, churches and/or schools needs improved so the little things in life don’t become big things.

The Polk Transportation Planning Organization (TPO) recognizes that no data, analysis or study tells the complete story of needed improvement around Polk County – thus the TPO has launched a first-of-its-kind Interactive Public Comment Map as the foundation of it’s Momentum 2040 campaign.

You’re in the driver’s seat and on your smartphone, PC or tablet you can share your experiences at www.polktpo.com/momentum2040

All comments will be reviewed by Polk TPO staff, as well as local city planners and officials with organizations such as the Central Florida Regional Planning Council.

It is estimated that by the year 2040 Polk County will be home to more than 1 million residents and the Polk TPO is planning for a safer, more accessible future.
