Planning for Growth
in North Central Texas
–
Arash Mirzaei, Senior Program Manager
North Central Texas Council of Governments
–
You already know we are growing better here than anywhere else -- learn
just how much better, and how you can benefit! The North Central Texas
Council of Governments assesses where and how we’ll grow, and supports
and encourages that growth with infrastructure planning and aggressive
coordination of efforts between the cities and counties of North Texas. "
Demographic forecasting is an essential part of transportation planning in
any region. North Central Texas Council of Government (NCTCOG)
develops demographic forecasts to be used in transportation investment
analysis. These investments generally require large capital and need to
satisfy significant regulatory requirements before implementation. This
process is organized in a long range transportation plan of the region. In
this presentation, Arash Mirzaei explains the role of the NCTCOG in this
process, the forecast of the population and employment in the region,
major transportation projects that are in the plan for 2035, and introduces
resources that can inform you in more detail about these subjects.
