Transportation planning and research serves as the backbone of OKI operations. OKI's Long-Range plan is a 30-year plan that provides strategic direction for transportation capital investments. Growth projects, forecasts and small area distributions are used to form urban scenarios and visioning efforts that inform future transportation plans.
2040 Transportation Plan
Every four years, the Ohio-Indiana-Kentucky Regional Council of Governments (OKI) updates the OKI 2040 Regional Transportation Plan. The Plan is the long-range, comprehensive transportation-planning document for the three-state, eight-county Greater Cincinnati region. It defines the overarching goals for transportation in our region, establishes existing and future transportation needs of the region and allocates projected revenue to transportation programs and projects that address those needs.
