[CTPP] Planning for Urbanized Area boundaries - CTPP

18 May 2009

On Friday, June 12, 2009 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Eastern, FHWA will host 
a webinar on the Census Bureau's plans for “new” Urbanized Areas (UA) 
boundaries.  The UA boundaries are extremely important for 
transportation planning and programming because they begin to define the 
area and population counts used for many of the Federal funding 
programs.  Simply put, the UA population means money.  The UA boundary 
is also important as it begins to define the core area from which MPOs 
evolve.  The webinar is open to anyone with internet access on a first 
come first served basis.  Pre registration is required.  Space is 
limited.  For those unable to attend, the session will be recorded.

To attend you must pre-register.  To register go to
