What is the Metropolitan Transportation Plan?

Metropolitan Planning Organizations are required by Federal law to develop a long range transportation plan (or MTP) at least every five years. This document must include the strategies, actions and projects that will lead to "an integrated multimodal transportation system to facilitate the safe and efficient movement of people and goods…" Federal funds cannot be used for projects and services unless they are consistent with an adopted long range plan. The MTP must also be financially constrained by the reasonably expected level of transportation funding.

The CCMPO adopted its last long range transportation plan for Chittenden County in 2005, a document that looked out to 2025. This plan, referred to as the 2025 MTP, identifies the major transportation projects, programs and policies needed over the planning period, and establishes the vision and goals that will guide public decisions affecting transportation facilities and services in the County.

2060 Metropolitan Transportation Plan

The CCMPO is now embarking on the next MTP update and we plan to look out 50 years, hence the new plan title - "2060 Chittenden County Metropolitan Transportation Plan".
