C. Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP)

Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Board Meeting · 2026-06-11 · agenda_item

The Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Board is planning to develop, coordinate, and adopt an updated Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) for Fiscal Years 2027 and 2028. This program outlines transportation planning studies and potential projects for Pasco County. The process involves soliciting comments from private and civic organizations, advisory committees, and various state and federal transportation agencies. The MPO will lead coordination, prepare presentations, and develop key documents like an executive summary and financial tables. This planning effort is currently under review and is expected to span from July 2026 to June 2028. The scope of work will involve administrative tasks, grant applications, and technical reviews to ensure compliance with federal regulations. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in transportation planning, engineering, and related fields can benefit from early engagement as this program develops, potentially leading to future project opportunities.
