6. Non-federal Share: It is the policy of the Department to fulfill the non-federal share or “soft match” with toll

[SPECIAL_EMERGENCY] Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Board Meeting · 2026-05-05 · agenda_item

This item concerns the policy for using toll credits to cover the non-federal share of transportation projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) must include details about this soft match in its Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) introduction and show the total amount of toll credits used in budget tables. This policy is planned and under review by the MPO Board. The work involves planning and budgeting for future transportation projects, which will require detailed documentation and financial tracking. This early stage means opportunities for businesses involved in transportation planning, financial analysis, and administrative support to engage with the MPO as these plans are developed. Reaching out now allows businesses to understand the MPO's needs and potentially offer services before specific project bids are released.
