senior on bike Your Ideas Shape the Region's Transportation System
The goal of continuing, comprehensive and cooperative planning is to develop and sustain a transportation system that meets regional needs and goals. In a cooperative planning process, the contributors to the plans must include those who live and work in the region. FAMPO wants your advice on how best to allocate transportation resourses to:
  • Move people and goods efficiently
  • Support sustainable development
  • Protect air quality
  • Make transportation a benefit to communities

documents Public Involvement and the MPO Planning Process
The ongoing regional transportation planning process relies on public participation to gather input and guidance for studies and planning documents. The MPO actively solicits information and receives and responds to comments throughout the year by phone, email, U.S. Mail, and at public meetings. Draft documents are released for public review. You can find theses documents by visiting our website, or by requesting the document by mail or email.
   
planning Public Involvement and the Transportation Project
Each transportation project has an extensive development process with public involvement at each step whether roadway, bicycle path, or transit. Public involvement helps to define the scope of a project. While a project is in design, public input supplements the planning expertise with invaluable local knowledge. All transportation projects undergo an environmental assessment in which the public aids in identifying issues and mitigation strategies to address them. When a project is ready to be funded, public involvement informs the MPO's funding priority process.
