Jones County
This Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP) has been developed for Jones County and was a joint effort between Jones County, Town of Maysville, Town of Pollocksville, Town of Trenton, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT), and the Down East Rural Planning Organization (RPO). The CTP process involved both government officials and the public in an effort to determine the county’s future transportation needs based on the best information available including: population, economic conditions, traffic trends and patterns of land development. The CTP is a multi-modal plan, addressing the concerns of transit users, bicyclists, and pedestrians in addition to highway users. It provides solutions that promote and provide the safe, efficient, cost-effective and environmentally sensitive use of the transportation system, while addressing current and future travel needs. The CTP was adopted by Pollocksville on November 10, 2015; Trenton on November 10, 2015; Jones County on November 16, 2015; Maysville on December 3, 2015; and the North Carolina Department of Transportation on February 4, 2016. The Down East RPO endorsed the plan on January 26, 2016.
