Connect Greater Madison 2050 Regional Transportation Plan logo

Connect Greater Madison 2050 is the region's current long-range transportation plan.

Investment Priorities & Funding

Connect Greater Madison 2050 outlines nearly $12.5 billion in transportation investments to keep the region moving. 

The plan ensures that:

  • Projects are well-coordinated across municipal, county, state, and federal agencies
  • Investments support regional priorities, creating a connected network for driving, public transit, biking, and walking
  • Projects remain eligible for federal funding, as the plan serves as the framework for federally funded transportation improvements

By taking a long-term, strategic approach, the plan helps secure funding and ensures that transportation investments make the biggest impact for communities across the region.

Coordination with Regional Planning

Connect Greater Madison 2050 was developed in partnership with the Capital Area Regional Planning Commission's (CARPC) 2050 Regional Development Framework, which serves as the region's advisory guide for land use planning.

The framework:

  • Reflects public priorities and local government input
  • Uses growth projections to guide future development
  • Establishes goals, objectives, and strategies for accommodating Dane County's future growth
