The Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) serves as the unified voice of Broward County to state and federal legislators about transportation needs and concerns. As the County’s voice, the MPO places special emphasis on providing equal access to transportation planning choices through public outreach initiatives. The Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) process is one of many ways that the MPO engages the public. It is also how the MPO evaluates the needs and choices involved in transportation infrastructure planning.
The 2035 LRTP is a blueprint for the comprehensive county transportation system. Over the past year the Broward MPO worked with communities throughout the county to define their desired transportation services and to develop the 2035 LRTP. As a result the Broward MPO is now shifting its transportation focus from roadway to transit services. With this phase completed the Cost Feasible Plan is being developed; this plan will prioritize the list of transportation projects that will be implemented over the next 20 years. These projects address transit, pedestrian, bicycle, greenway, safety, security, and roadway improvements.
