Readers should regard the Plan as a resource document to help advance good regional transportation policy. It is also meant to help various transportation stakeholders collaborate on regional transportation issues with the same frame of reference and similar understanding of key challenges and opportunities. As you are reading through the Plan, note that there are italicized words and underlined words. When a word is italicized, that means that a definition of the word is available in the Glossary of Terms section in the back of the Plan. When a word is underlined, that term is hyperlinked to an internet resource that can provide more information about that term. There is also an acronym list at the back of the Plan for your reference. If you are representing a community in the Southwest Region If you are representing a municipality in the Southwest Region it is recommended that you identify the corridor system with which your town is affiliated. There are eight different corridor systems identified in SOUTHWEST CONNECTS so plan to make the Southwest Region Corridor Systems section one of your first stops. In some cases, your community may be part of more than one corridor system. This section also has some valuable data that is helpful for understanding transportation-related trends in your corridor area. You are also encouraged to look at the Regional Transportation Improvement Program, which is updated annually

  • Regional Context
    Regional Context Introduction The Southwest Region of New Hampshire The State of New Hampshire is divided into nine regions, each with a Regional Planning Commission (RPC) to assist towns with a more local approach to community planning rather than at the state level. The landscape of the Southwest Region (also known as the Monadnock Region), a 34-town area in Cheshire, western Hillsborough, and Sullivan Counties, is mostly forested with rural and suburban residential development dispersed between village centers. Approximately 100,751 people lived in 45,744 households in the 976-square-mile region in 2010. Town populations ranged from 224 in Windsor to 23,409 in Keene. Population density region-wide has grown from 64 persons per square mile in 1970 to 103 persons per square mile in 2010. The Monadnock Region gets its name from Mount Monadnock, which rises 3,165 feet above sea level and is visible from all the towns in southwestern New Hampshire. Mount Monadnock is the most significant symbol of the entire region and is believed to be the second most climbed mountain in the world. The peak of the mountain and a large portion of its bulk lie within the borders of Jaffrey. For that reason the town has for decades accepted responsibility for safeguarding Mount Monadnock. With Mount Monadnock as the regional identifier, is also serves as a divisional boundary by splitting the region into two smaller groupings of towns, or sub regions. One is dominated by the Connecticut River Valley’s population centers of Keene and Brattleboro as employment, commercial and population centers.
