The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is the Metropolitan Planning Organization for the nine-county Philadelphia region, including the counties of Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer in New Jersey. DVRPC’s responsibilities include the preparation and maintenance of a long-range land use and transportation plan.

This survey is the first of many ways in which we hope to solicit your opinions and concerns regarding land use, environmental, economic development and transportation issues that are within the realm of DVRPC's mission. Your input will be used to develop a vision for the future of the region, which will be included in Connections – The Regional Plan for a Sustainable Future. This long-range plan will guide future development and investment decisions in the Delaware Valley. More information is available on the Connections homepage at www.dvrpc.org/connections.

The survey should take approximately 5 to 8 minutes to complete and all responses will remain confidential. Respondents should be at least 18 years old and be either employed in or a resident of the nine-county region.
