CSPDC is excited to announce the launch of our new community engagement platform, CSPDC Connect, which is designed to foster more meaningful and accessible public participation across the Central Shenandoah region.
This innovative digital platform will serve as our hub for community engagement, providing updates on projects, studies, and other CSPDC activities and making participation easy for community members. With multilingual capabilities, our new platform will help ensure the feedback is representative of the diverse community we serve.
CSPDC Connect will be used across all CSPDC’s service areas, from transportation to housing to economic and community development to disaster mitigation and preparedness. It will also support the efforts of the Staunton Augusta Waynesboro Metropolitan Planning Organization (SAWMPO) and Harrisonburg Rockingham Metropolitan Planning Organization (HRMPO), which CSPDC staffs and manages.
SAWMPO will be the first to utilize this new platform with the launch of Phase Two of the 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) update on February 18. This project will invite community feedback on a proposed list of projects, highlighting the importance of public input in shaping regional transportation priorities. You’ll find information about how you can participate in the engagement process on our Social Pinpoint project site – Subscribe now to receive an email when the Phase Two survey is live.
Through features such as project updates, short videos, and interactive tools, community members can use CSPDC Connect to stay informed and see the direct impact of getting involved.
We invite everyone to explore the new platform and join us in shaping the future of the Central Shenandoah region. Stay tuned for more updates and opportunities to engage with the projects that matter to you.
