Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization
The Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is responsible for conducting the federally required metropolitan transportation planning process for the Boston metropolitan area. The MPO develops the vision for the region and decides how to allocate federal and state transportation funds to programs and projects—roadway, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian—that support that vision. The staff to the Boston Region MPO, the Central Transportation Planning Staff (CTPS), was created in 1974 to develop a permanent resource of expertise in comprehensive, multimodal transportation planning and analysis. CTPS promotes interagency cooperation, ensures consistency among planning efforts, reduces redundancy, and fills gaps in the capabilities of MPO members—thus enabling work for member agencies to be accomplished efficiently and effectively.
