This feature set contains the current boundaries of Priority Development Areas (PDAs) used by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) for analysis and mapping related to Plan Bay Area 2050+. These areas, which are nominated by a local government resolution and approved by the ABAG Executive Board, are eligible for grant funding allocated to planning and projects in PDAs. Plan Bay Area 2050+ is the latest update to the long-range Regional Transportation Plan and Sustainable Communities Strategy for the nine-county San Francisco Bay Region. It will update Plan Bay Area 2050, approved in 2021. This PDA feature set is limited to use in general mapping and analysis related to Plan Bay Area 2050+ and the planning activities of local governments that have nominated PDAs.
