Collaboration, Preservation, Urban Revitalization and Growth Management are integral parts to the Lackawanna Luzerne Counties Joint Comprehensive Plan and Long-Range Transportation Plan. The region’s urban areas are focused on revitalization and new housing opportunities. Land preservation is a high priority in the agricultural areas outside the primary growth areas. Goods distribution and delivery is as much a threat as it is an economic opportunity within existing and new employment centers throughout the region. An already robust transportation system is poised to become the multimodal network of the future. Multimodal transportation solutions such as active transportation, transit, bus-rapid transit and passenger rail are part of a bright future for connecting residents, neighborhoods, and cities to employment centers.
