Transportation Planning, Safety and Feasibility Study Program
Conducting studies and plans help OVRDC assist member counties with transportation issues. The role of OVRDC as a Regional Transportation Planning Organization (RTPO) includes the opportunity to assist our member counties with safety and feasibility studies that often will lay the groundwork for larger funding applications and bigger project planning.
