Abstract	The Metropolitan Planning Organization, is usually referred to as the "MPO", within Hernando County. MPO's were mandated by the Federal Highway Act of 1973 to provide a cooperative, comprehensive, and continuing transportation planning and decision-making process. The process encompasses all modes and covers both short-range and long-range transportation planning. MPO plans and programs are reviewed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The MPO developed the most recent update of its multi-modal Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), the Year 2025 Plan, in February 2002. Plan development activities were closely coordinated with the District Seven Office of the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), and included extensive cooperation with other local, regional, state, and federal agencies. As developed by the Hernando County MPO, the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) contains all significant transportation projects scheduled for improvement within the upcoming five years. Projects are grouped by jurisdictional responsibility, and indicate year, type, and funding level for each improvement.
