Tools
Data
SANDAG developed the Vision for the 2021 Regional Plan through a data-driven process that analyzed where people live and work, how they get around, what transportation infrastructure exists, what is needed to serve future growth, and more.
Feedback from residents, employers, and stakeholders across the San Diego region identified transportation challenges. SANDAG analyzed this input along with other data and used innovative planning techniques to identify solutions that respond to the unique needs of our wonderfully diverse communities. The result is a comprehensive vision that unites the 5 Big Moves and leverages technology to create a safe, resilient, and socially equitable transportation ecosystem.
Staff presented the data-driven process for developing the Vision at a joint meeting of the Transportation, Regional Planning, and Borders Committees on August 7. The Vision for the 2021 Regional Plan will be presented to the SANDAG Board of Directors on August 14.

5 Big Moves
The
5 Big Moves—
Complete Corridors,
Transit Leap,
Mobility Hubs,
Flexible Fleets, and
Next OS—are key strategies for a more vibrant, connected region. The vision for the 2021 Regional Plan includes each of the 5 Big Moves in order to reduce traffic congestion, meet regulatory requirements, and create more equitable access to jobs, education, healthcare, and other community resources.
Imagine how improvements of the vision network could be applied across the San Diego region through these conceptual renderings:
Impacts of COVID-19 in transportation planning
