LISTS OF TRANSPORTATION PROVIDERSThe Gunnison Valley Transportation Planning Region Committee (GVTPR)
Region 10 administers the Gunnison Valley Transportation Planning Region (GVTPR) Committee, which provides input for regional transportation and transit planning. Every five years, the committee assists in the development of 20-year Regional Transportation Plans through an extensive public participation process. The plan is a multi-model transportation plan addressing the transportation elements of roadways, bike & pedestrian facilities, transit services, aviation, and rail services, and covers all six counties in Region 10. This plan is used by the Colorado Department of Transportation in the development of the Statewide Transportation Plan and to establish priority projects for funding every year.
The committee meets on a quarterly basis to discuss current transportation project updates and developing transportation needs. A monthly transportation newsletter is sent to participating communities.
GVTPR Meetings
Region 10 serves as the coordinating agency for the Gunnison Valley Transportation Planning Region (GVTPR), an area that includes the Delta, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Montrose, Ouray & San Miguel counties. The role of the Region 10 is to facilitate regular communication between the Colorado Department of Transportation and local government and private parties in the planning region making up the GVTPR Comittee. This includes planning quarterly meetings of the GVTPR; enabling public input into state transportation planning and projects; maintaining a record of meetings; attending local, regional and state meetings on transportation issues; and keeping TPR members informed of transportation project status and funding opportunities.
The transportation planning process is meant to be an inclusive process with open meetings and public participation encouraged.

Meet Vince Rogalski
Region 10’s Transportation Director
We are thankful for individuals who are willing to spend a considerable amount of time away from their homes to provide a voice for Western Colorado citizens on statewide issues. One of these individuals is Deacon Vince Rogalski of Gunnison, who has served as the chairman of the Gunnison Valley Transportation Planning Region (GVTPR) and the Chairman of the State Transportation Advisory Committee (STAC) for the last 14 years!
The GVTPR is responsible for the development of 20-year Regional Transportation Plans every five years, as well as producing annual updates through an extensive public participation process. The plan is a multi-model transportation plan addressing the transportation elements of roadways, bike & pedestrian facilities, transit services, aviation, and rail services, and covers all six counties in Region 10. It is used by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) in the development of the Statewide Transportation Plan and to establish priority projects for funding every year. The STAC advises the Colorado Department of Transportation on the needs of the transportation system in Colorado and reviews and comments on all Statewide Transportation Plans. STAC assists with the development of the statewide CDOT budget and project selection and prioritization.
Vince also serves on several other state transportation committees, including the transit and rail advisory committee and the freight plan committee. He spends several days a month in Denver making sure that the transportation needs of Western Colorado are part of every discussion at the state level. Thanks Vince!
