Cape Cod’s beaches, woodlands, and marshes are more than scenic landscapes. They are essential to the region’s drinking water, wildlife habitat, and economy. To help ensure these resources are protected for generations to come, the Cape Cod Commission is developing a regional open space plan.

The 2025 Regional Policy Plan (RPP) establishes a goal to conserve, preserve, and enhance a connected network of open space that supports the Cape’s natural systems and community character. It also includes a recommended action to develop a regional open space plan to identify lands of natural and community significance for protection.

By sunrise most mornings, Barnstable’s Route 132 park-and-ride lot is already overflowing with commuters and travelers headed for Boston, Logan Airport, and other destinations.

The Route 132 park-and-ride and the spaces available at the Hyannis Transportation Center are the only park-and-ride facilities offering direct service to Boston from the mid-Cape area.

MassDOT has dedicated funding this year to complete a major redesign of the facility. The final design expands the lot to the north and west, adding 271 new parking spaces for a total of 639 total parking spaces, nearly double the current capacity.
