ROCK ISLAND, Ill. Transportation is how we connect with neighbors, businesses, and our community. It gets us to where we want and need to go. A reliable and efficient transportation network supports a dynamic, connected, and flourishing region.
Every five years, regional transportation priorities for Iowa Regional Planning Area 9 (Muscatine County and rural Scott County) are established in the Iowa Region 9 Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). The plan examines regional economic and population changes, as well as other trends, to provide insights into the needs within the Iowa region and allow communities to plan for future development and economic activity.
The Bi-State Regional Commission is announcing that the full draft of the 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan for Iowa Region 9 is available for public review.
Over the next month, residents of Muscatine and Scott counties are encouraged to provide feedback on the plan. There will be an online meeting on Thursday, May 14, 2026, where residents can join Bi-State staff and give feedback on the draft plan.
The 2050 Iowa Region 9 Long Range Transportation Plan will be considered for recommended adoption at a public hearing during the Region 9 Transportation Policy Committee to be held in early June. The Bi-State Regional Commission will consider adoption of the plan on June 24, 2026.
