A. Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP)

Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Board Meeting · 2026-05-21 · agenda_item

The Pasco MPO is undertaking an update to its Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) for the year 2050, with activities planned from July 2026 through June 2028. This comprehensive plan will guide transportation needs and investments across all travel modes and facilities in Pasco County for the next 25 years. The update includes developing strategies for an integrated multimodal transportation system, such as pedestrian walkways and bicycle facilities, and addressing current and future transportation demands. Key activities involve creating a Congestion Management Process report, maintaining related databases, integrating freight objectives, performing project management, and conducting preliminary multimodal corridor studies to estimate costs and environmental impacts. This process will also involve developing safety and security plans, reviewing micro-mobility regulations, and improving transportation system resiliency. The project will require services in planning, data analysis, modeling, and coordination with various agencies. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early in this planning phase to understand the project's scope and potential future needs before detailed plans and bids are finalized.
