The draft Plan will then be revised and strengthened based on community feedback before being presented for final review and adoption by the Rapid City Planning Commission and Rapid City Council later this month and October. The 2025 Rapid City Comprehensive Plan will serve as the official policy document to guide future growth and development in Rapid City and shape the shared vision for the future of our community. The draft Plan focuses on topics including growth and land use, housing, transportation, public services and facilities, education, recreation and natural resources, arts and culture, and the economy. The Plan consists of goals, policies, and actions across each of the topic areas to provide long-term direction, guidelines to inform decision makers, and strategies to achieve the vision and desired outcomes of the community.

In 2023, Rapid City was awarded $160,000 to develop a Safety Action Plan as part of the U.S. Department of Transportation's Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program. This funding provides our community the opportunity to develop a plan that expands upon existing transportation goals and objectives to create a safer community with zero roadway deaths. The Safety Action Plan will include a safety analysis of Severe Crash Events, Current Conditions, and Road Users. The SS4A Safety Action Plan will utilize that data, along with future forecasted conditions, to develop a plan that will analyze the entire transportation system to identify high priority safety locations and provide recommendations to address issues at these locations. The recommendations will be prioritized into short-, mid- and long-term projects to create an implementation plan.
