Questions to Consider

How critical is transportation/infrastructure to your community? What are the impacts to projects not being completed? What are the impacts of the communities inability to respond to emerging needs? What priority should preserving the existing system in the future?

16

What are major lessons learned?

Where are the opportunities for reflection over the long-term? What were some lessons learned through the T-WORKS program? What were major driving factors?

17

What are the next steps?

What do we need to take an immediate look at as it relates to transportation funding? i.e. transfers, current needs, needs not met under last program The best way to encourage participation in these discussions? What is realistic?

18

Project Specific Needs

Just projects canceled under T-WORKS? Other priorities? Other Preliminary Engineering Investment Promises?
