Executive Summary
Staff from SANDAG and the City of Carlsbad will present and discuss the 2021 Regional Plan.
Discussion
The 2021 Regional Plan was adopted by the SANDAG Board of Directors on Dec. 10, 2021, and
provides a long‐term blueprint for the San Diego region that seeks to meet regulatory
requirements, address traffic congestion, and create equal access to jobs, education,
healthcare, and other community resources. The Regional Plan is updated every four years and
combines three planning documents that SANDAG must complete per state and federal laws:
The Regional Transportation Plan, Sustainable Communities Strategy, and Regional
Comprehensive Plan. The Regional Plan also supports other regional transportation planning
and programming efforts, including overseeing which projects are funded under the Regional
Transportation Improvement Program and the TransNet program.
The full Regional Plan document and supporting materials can be found at the following
