This report documents a comprehensive land use and transportation evaluation for seven municipalities located in Central Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The work augments planning activities conducted independently by the study area municipalities through adoption of a multi-modal area-wide perspective, application of regional planning initiatives (PA Congestion Management Systems, Mobility Alternatives Programs, etc.) and use of regional evaluation procedures (the regional travel demand forecasting model).

These are enveloped into a recommended Capital Improvement Plan for the study area, totaling just over $710 million. The capital recommendations are complemented with a comprehensive list of growth management and travel demand management actions which are also recommended to maintain mobility in the study area.Geographic Area Covered: East Norriton, Lower Providence, Plymouth, West Norriton, Whitpain and Worcester townships, and the Borough of Norristown in Central Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
