Targeted Technical Metropolitan Transportation Planning Assistance

Transportation systems planning encompasses a holistic approach to evaluating state and regional transportation needs at the broadest level. It is a progression of planning activities that helps to establish a context for sound policy decisions and is an avenue for involving the public in transportation plans and projects to support the state and regional vision for the future. The systems planning process leads to a number of tangible products that ensure that local transportation decisions are made in a comprehensive and inclusive manner. Some of these products include a multimodal long range transportation plan and a shorter term transportation improvement program.
