The UPWP for the Collier Metropolitan Planning (MPO) Area documents transportation planning and transportation related planning activities. The objective of this work program is to ensure that a continuing, cooperative and comprehensive approach to planning for transportation needs is maintained and properly coordinated with other counties, other MPO's, the Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council, and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT).
The TIP is a staged multi-year program of transportation improvement projects. The list of projects includes highway, transit, and aviation improvements programmed in the state's multi-modal five- year work program, and may include transportation projects programmed in the local government's Capital Improvement Element. Most federally funded projects must be listed in the TIP. State and locally funded projects should be listed for informational purposes. The FDOT District director coordinates the department's input into this document and insures its compatibility with the FDOT Work Program. The TIP must be updated and adopted each year by the MPO.
The Public Involvement Process (PIP) manual serves as a guide for involving citizens in Collier County in the transportation decision making process. The manual describes methods used by the MPO to educate and inform the public as well as solicit public input to the planning process. Please contact the MPO office for further information.
The Collier Metropolitan Planning Organization adopted the 2030 long-range transportation plan (LRTP) for Collier County on January 12, 2006. As part of the annual review of the LRTP and to respond to new SAFETEA-LU requirements, the Collier MPO adopted a minor update to the 2030 LRTP on June 8, 2007. The long-range plan includes transportation improvements and services that are needed to serve Collier County over the next twenty-three year horizon.
The Congestion Management System (CMS) Manual explains the development of a fully systematic process that provides information on transportation system performance and alternative strategies to alleviate congestion and enhance mobility. The manual identifies short term and long-term strategies to reduce congestion as well as activities currently being implemented to reduce congestions.
The Unfunded Priorities is an annually produced list of unfunded transportation improvement projects. The adopted list of priorities is transmitted to the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to be considered during their project selection process for the FDOT’s Five- Year Work Program.
