The plan will look to improve roads and modernize the infrastructure to make it easier for people to get around.

It will also explore ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation.

The Capital Region Transportation Council is hosting a public workshop Thursday evening, March 21 at 6 p.m.
