Transportation System Performance Evaluation
Preface
This report is a comprehensive review of the Twin Cities transportation system as prepared by Metropolitan Council in 2023. The Minnesota State Legislature adopted statutes in 1996 requiring the Metropolitan Council to produce this report (previously called the Transportation System Audit). This report was prepared to inform the 2024 update to the region’s long-range transportation plan, the 2050 Transportation Policy Plan (2050 TPP).
