Even the smallest of upgrades, like automating a power switch on a train track, can make the biggest difference when it comes to traffic mitigation efforts. What small changes has the MPO in your community made to make life a little easier? #aMPOSpotlight
🚥 At certain times of the day when the train crosses University Avenue, it must come to a stop for a crew member to manually flip a switch before it proceeds towards the rail yard. This project aims to automate this switch so the train doesn't have to stop.

One of the many benefits of being an AMPO member is having the opportunity to network with MPO peers all over the country. @FASTplanning offers some unique perspective all the way from Fairbanks North Star Borough which includes the cities Fairbanks and North Pole! #aMPOSpotlight

When it comes to making walking, biking & public transit not just practical, but ENJOYABLE in your city, remember that although smart infrastructure investment & design is critically important, the best transportation plan is a great land use plan.

Huh, even the governor's office calls it Wendell Street? (It's Wendell Ave.) Pity. That bridge needs replacing. xitter.gq/FDNMPolitics/status/74…
Here's the road projects that were vetoed. Three, incl. one that was pretty much already dead, in #Fairbanks. #akleg
Peger Road is closed between Airport Way and Davis Road due to an undetermined "utility incident," according to police. Avoid the area.
