Plumas County Transportation commission

About

The Plumas County Transportation Commission (PCTC) is the Regional Transportation Planning Agency (RTPA) for Plumas County. The PCTC is responsible for planning the needs of the transportation system in the County, including roadways, transit, rail, aviation, and bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure.  The Commission is responsible for maintaining and updating the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) every 5 years in accordance with State guidelines and to be eligible for several funding opportunities.

This RTP update effort will take place from Fall 2023 through Winter of 2024. The last RTP for Plumas County was completed in 2020.

DEVELOPING A REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN

The purpose of the Plumas County 2025 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) is to provide the vision for the region, supported by transportation goals, for short term (2025-2035) and long term (2035-2045) planning horizons.

The RTP will:

  • Assess the current modes of transportation in Plumas County and the potential of new travel options within the region;

  • Identify projected growth corridors and predict the future improvements and needs for travel and goods movement;

  • Identify and document specific actions necessary to address the region’s mobility and accessibility needs;

  • Determine prioritized regional transportation projects and funding strategies for Plumas County over the next twenty years.

The RTP includes all transportation modes including local roadway improvements and maintenance, State highways, bridges, public transit, bicycle, pedestrian, rail, and aviation. The RTP development process will be a collaborative effort between Plumas County, Caltrans, environmental and resource management agencies, and the public.

Any outreach materials for the update including notices, meetings, minutes and agendas will be posted on this website.
