MPO Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) Meeting · 2026-06-03 · agenda_item

The Pasco County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is developing its annual Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), which outlines planned transportation projects for the next five years. This program includes projects funded by federal, state, and local sources, focusing on improvements to highways, transit, pedestrian, and bicycle facilities. The TIP development process involves input from various committees and agencies, with project selection based on MPO priorities, regional needs, and available funding. The TIP aims to increase transparency by showing the total cost of projects, including preliminary engineering, right-of-way acquisition, and construction phases. This planning stage presents an early opportunity for contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the MPO and its partners before specific bid processes and permits are finalized. Understanding the TIP's scope can help businesses prepare for potential future work in areas like site preparation, utility work, paving, and construction trades.
