With efforts led by KAI, Southeast Florida (a three-county area of more than 8 million people) adopted their first Regional Long Range Transportation Plan (RLRTP) in the Spring of 2010. The 2035 Plan created a regional vision that united three individual Metropolitan Planning Organization long range plans into a single plan. Having prepared this tool, the region is better prepared for receiving and applying funds to regional significant highway and transit facilities.

To encourage successful adoption of the plan, KAI facilitated the coordination and collaboration of more than ten agencies across the region. To accomplish this regional effort technically, the following activities were undertaken over a two year period: a consistency/compatibility review of local, regional, and statewide plans; the creation and adoption of regional goals, objectives, and measures of effectiveness; public involvement activities conducted in conjunction with local LRTP public involvement activities; the completion of a regional travel demand model that was applied at the regional and local plan analysis level; the development of a regional transportation network; the development of both a regional needs and cost feasible plan; a review and summation of regional revenues and finances; and a regional transit quality of service assessment for origin-destination pairs of regional significance.
