The City of Longmont has finished a year long process to craft a Transportation Mobility Plan (TMP). The development process looked at the current conditions of people moving around and through Longmont and proposed future upgrades and improvements. The plan prioritizes safe and accessible transportation options for people walking, biking and taking transit while assuring that Longmont’s overall transportation system is safe, comfortable and well maintained.

 

The process included robust public engagement to increase understanding of transportation conditions and challenges, establish goals for transportation that equitably and safely serves all Longmont users, and set a path to meet the City’s sustainability objectives. Through broad and inclusive community input and data-driven analysis, the project developed a transformational TMP with a prioritized list of future transportation capital improvement projects, policies and programs.

Community members provided feedback on the draft mobility recommendations at a public meeting on July 18 and through a community survey that closed on August 23. Participant feedback included:

• Multi-modal facilities are currently inadequate
• Traffic, speeding and pedestrian safety are concerns
• The TMP should be inclusive of all modes of transportation
• There is strong support for an accessible and connected pedestrian network throughout the city
• A high-comfort and connected network for biking and rolling is desired
• Residents want more frequent and efficient transit options, including better bus shelters and increased service, particularly regionally.

An updated draft of the TMP was made available for review by stakeholders.

City Council adopted the final TMP in March 2025.
