On June 5, 2007, a group of over 75 people, carefully selected to represent a cross-section of state transportation stakeholders, gathered at the Capital Plaza Hotel in Montpelier to participate in an all-day Scenario Planning Session. Working Paper 7 (in development) provides a summary and analysis of the discussions and results of the Session. It sets the foundation for the strategies and priorities identified in the Long Range Transportation Business Plan.
