Residents surveyed about
infrastructure priorities

What are San Diego region residents’ priorities when it comes to building more freeway lanes, improving transit, and preserving open space? How should the region pay for new infrastructure? These questions have been posed to San Diego region residents in a survey conducted by SANDAG.

The survey was conducted in November and December with results available by February 2007. As SANDAG makes critical decisions about funding priorities, it is important to know what issues resonate with residents.

SANDAG periodically conducts surveys with San Diego region residents to involve them in the regional planning process and to keep SANDAG aware of the issues that matter to people who live here. This survey presents an opportunity for SANDAG to collect statistically reliable information on a number of different topics, including identifying issues that are of utmost concern to residents, gauging public opinion and awareness as they relate to specific SANDAG programs, funding and policy priorities, and exploring public attitudes about matters that directly affect the quality of life in the region. By gathering and analyzing current opinion data, the study provides SANDAG with the information it needs to make sound, strategic decisions.
