Specifications include, but are not limited to: Consultant services to engage the community in a master planning process for the Route 5 Corridor for the purpose of guiding future economic development, land use, stormwater, and transportation infrastructure decisions.

In addition to guiding municipal investment, the Master Plan will guide private investment along the Route 5 Corridor.
