Input Sought On Cherokee County Transportation Survey

CANTON, GA — The growing population in Cherokee County has renewed the need for an update to the Comprehensive Transportation Plan – Cherokee Moves - to assess how current and future transportation demands have shifted across the county and region. The Comprehensive Transportation Plan will identify infrastructure improvement investments that meet the long-term needs of Cherokee County.

Feedback from the public will help provide framework the Comprehensive Transportation Plan update and ensure local transportation expectations are aligned with the prioritization of projects.

An online survey has launched to allow an opportunity for those who live, work or travel in Cherokee County to weigh in on priorities when it comes to transportation needs and initiatives. The survey focuses on all modes of transportation within Cherokee County and asks participants to rank goals for the county’s transportation network.

“Input from our residents, business owners, visitors and other commuters is a crucial and
fundamental element in our planning for the CTP,” County Manager Geoff Morton said. “The
Comprehensive Transportation Plan update should reflect the needs and expectations of the people who use our streets, bike lanes, transit and sidewalks each day.”

The survey is available on the Comprehensive Transportation Plan Update website, or directly online.

Residents, businesses and visitors are encouraged to participate in the survey and read more about the Cherokee Moves Comprehensive Transportation Plan update at online for more information.
