The purpose of the North Fulton Comprehensive Transportation Plan is to provide the foundation and framework for multimodal, multi-jurisdictional infrastructure and policy recommendations across the cities of Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Milton, Sandy Springs, Roswell and Mountain Park. Existing conditions were documented and analyzed for low-cost, easily-implemented operational improvements, as well as major investments. Needs and recommendations were examined against vision, goals and objectives criteria. Input of the public and stakeholders was sought throughout the project. The resulting document, TRIP (Transportation Resources Implementation Program), will guide the accomplishment of this effort.
