The New York Metropolitan Transportation Council, which directs transportation planning for the Lower Hudson Valley, New York City and Long Island, this week will hold planning workshops in our area.

NYMTC is beginning work on its 2010-2035 Regional Transportation Plan and is looking for public input to help it improve the region’s transportation system — roads, bridges, freight and mass-transit facilities, and bicycle and pedestrian networks — and to figure out ways to pay for the upgrades.

Here’s the schedule:

• Putnam: 3-5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. Sept. 22 at the county government complex in Carmel.

• Rockland: 3-5 p.m. and 6:30-8:30 p.m. Sept. 23 at the Palisades Center mall in West Nyack in the fourth floor community room.

• Westchester: 3-5 p.m. and 6:30-8:30 p.m. Sept. 24 at the Westchester County Center in White Plains.

Comments, ideas and suggestions also can be made through Oct. 31 at NYMTC’s Web site.
