Arlington, Texas — The North Central Texas Council of Governments will conduct an online input opportunity beginning September 9 to allow residents to comment on transportation projects and programs affecting the region.
Anyone with questions or comments is encouraged to provide input at
www.nctcog.org/input through October 8.
As a recipient of federal transportation funds, NCTCOG is required to establish and periodically update Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goals to encourage contracting opportunities for minority and historically underutilized businesses. The draft update of the DBE participation goals for Fiscal Years 2020 through 2022 will be posted for review and comment.
A comprehensive list of funded transportation projects through 2022 is maintained and regularly updated in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). Projects with committed funds from federal, State and local sources are also included in the TIP. To maintain an accurate project listing, this document is updated on a regular basis and will be posted for review and comment.
Additionally, information on the Dallas-Fort Worth National Drive Electric Week event September 21 at the Dallas Area Rapid Transit North Irving Transit Center will be available. This is an opportunity to get an up-close view of electric vehicles and talk to owners who have made the switch from gasoline-powered cars. Learn more

Finally, information on the upcoming Car Care Clinics and the Regional Smoking Vehicle Program (RSVP) will be available.
