The Future of Transportation
NDDOT is updating the state's long-range transportation plan (LRTP). Transportation Connection: 2025-2050 is the State of North Dakota’s long-range plan for the future of transportation within the state. The plan covers a variety of modes: highway, freight and passenger rail, air service, and bicyclists and pedestrians. This federally required plan provides NDDOT the opportunity to gather public and stakeholder insights and help develop strategic direction for making decisions and improvements over the next 25 years.
Transportation Connection: 2025-2050 will include:
- A data-driven analysis of current conditions to analyze North Dakota’s transportation needs
- A future-focused scenario planning process
- Meaningful public and stakeholder engagement to advance NDDOT's mission and goals over the next two and a half decades.
- Develop an Implementation Plan to guide NDDOT actions.
The LRTP update is the foundational cornerstone of NDDOT's Family of Plans.
Project Schedule
The 2025-2050 LRTP project kicked off in February 2025 and is anticipated to be completed in May 2026. Opportunities for public participation will happen at various times between July 2025 - January 2026. Watch for more information about upcoming events.
Get Involved
During the last plan update, we received meaningful feedback from thousands of North Dakota residents to gather insights on helping set the strategic direction for transportation improvements for the next 25 years. Watch for opportunities to get involved throughout the plan at events near you.
