The state Department of Transportation announced that the department is now accepting public comments on its Draft 2050 Freight Movement Plan (FMP), a comprehensive strategic plan for moving goods throughout the commonwealth.  

“The 2050 draft plan guides how we support freight movement in the Commonwealth,” said PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll. “Pennsylvania is the front door to the northeast, so it’s critical that we hear from you about how we invest in the movement of freight through our communities.” 

Click here to review the Draft 2050 FMP. The Draft 2050 FMP is available for comment on PennDOT’s website until November 25, 2026, at 11:59 PM. Comments may be submitted directly to RA-PD2050_FMP@pa.gov or by phone at 717-705-1478. Please share any comments or concerns with Amber Sadler, PSATS Government Relations Associate, at asadler@psats.org. PSATS is reviewing the FMP for impacts on its members and PSATS policies. 

After the public comment period closes, PennDOT will work to address concerns and respond to comments. The finalized plan will be submitted for approval to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) by December 19, 2026.
