iv. All other public transportation service providers that receive funding under 49

Indian River County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Meeting · 2026-06-10 · agenda_item

The Indian River County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is reviewing requirements for public transportation service providers. These providers, who receive funding under 49 U.S. Code Chapter 53, must notify the MPO and FDOT when they set their safety performance targets. This notification starts a 180-day clock for the MPO to establish its own transit safety performance targets. The MPO may update these targets later if providers do, or if the MPO amends its long-range transportation plan. This item is currently under review. The work involves establishing and potentially updating safety performance targets for public transit. This could lead to needs in data analysis, policy development, and reporting services. Local businesses specializing in transportation planning, consulting, and government relations may find opportunities by engaging early before final plans and processes are set.
