The Dover/Kent County MPO has announced that its new Public Participation Plan draft is now published for public comment. The PPP is"a kind of playbook that outlines how we are going to get every voice possible heard." says Helen Wiles, Public Outreach Manager for the MPO. The new PPP is part of the preparation for 2024's year-long public outreach for the MPO's Metropolitan Transportation Plan. The public is encouraged to visit www.doverkentmpo.org to view the PPP draft and then take a survey. Comments will be accepted until September 6,2023, when the MPO Council votes on adoption.
