Transportation summit on June 13

All are welcome to participate in the Regional Transportation Summit June 13 from 7 to 11 a.m. at the Windsor Community Recreation Center, 250 N. 11th St.

The North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organization expects the 250 available seats to fill quickly, however, and urges those interested to reserve a slot as soon as possible by calling 1-800-332-0950, extension 4, e-mailing rsvp@nfrmpo.org or visiting www.nfrsummit.com. If this summit reaches capacity, a second session may be scheduled.

The event will start with a continental breakfast at 7 a.m., followed by a welcome by Bill Kaufman, area representative on the Colorado Transportation Commission. A presentation on "Future Trends and Implications for the Region" will be at 8:15, followed at 8:45 by an exercise on future travel choices.

In the "Connections" exercise, participants will break into small groups. Each will collectively determine how $2.5 billion should be spent for transportation projects by placing representative structures on maps of the NFRMPO boundaries. Results will be revealed in a follow-up session.
