Plans

MTP

The Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) is the 25-year document that outlines the state of current transportation, projects future needs, and offers projects and other methods for keeping the people and freight in the KTMPO region moving efficiently. The MTP encompasses all aspects of transportation planning as well as transportation projects within the KTMPO region. Each local entity submits projects within their jurisdiction for possible inclusion into the MTP, and the Transportation Planning Policy Board (TPPB) prioritizes these projects based on the needs of the region. This plan is required to be updated every five years. The Mobility 2045 Metropolitan Transportation Plan can be viewed or downloaded below. Effective date: 15 May 2019.

PPP

The Public Participation Plan (PPP) sets policy and provides guidance for including the public in the planning process. It is intended to include everyone who uses the transportation infrastructure within the KTMPO area: minorities, elderly, disabled, and low to moderate-income groups; bus, rail and taxi companies as well as their passengers; freight shippers; and any private citizen or agency representatives. The PPP supports early and continuing involvement of the public in developing transportation plans for the region.

KTMPO’s public involvement plan aims to ensure equality among all citizens. Our goals are to assure for all Americans safe, healthful, productive, and aesthetically and culturally pleasing surroundings; to attain the widest range of beneficial uses of the environment without degradation, risk to health or safety, or other undesirable and unintended consequences; and to achieve a balance between population and resource use which will permit high standards of living and a wide sharing of life’s amenities. Together, these goals support a program of Environmental Justice.

The 2020 KTMPO PPP was approved by Policy Board on November 28, 2020.

Title VI Plan

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in any program or activity that receives Federal funds or other Federal financial assistance. As a recipient of Federal transportation funds, KTMPO is required to create and implement a Title VI program for compliance purposes. The Title VI Plan provides an overview of the organization and details how the Title VI program will be implemented by KTMPO.

The 2018 KTMPO Title VI Plan was approved by Policy Board on March 14, 2018.

TIP

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is the four-year transportation planning document that includes a detailed listing of projects reasonably expected to begin construction within a four year period. The TIP is updated every two years. Projects included in the TIP must also be included in the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) and are chosen based on regional priority and available funding. The current TIP covers FY23-FY26 and was originally approved on May 25, 2022.

KTMPO last amended the 2023-2026 TIP on July 19, 2023.

The original 2023 – 2026 TIP was approved on May 25, 2022.

UPWP

The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) provides descriptive and scheduling details for the MPO’s planning process. It serves as a base document for carrying on the continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive transportation planning process in the Killeen-Temple urbanized area. The UPWP includes a 2-year budget plan for MPO planning dollars and outlines estimated planning funds to be received by the MPO over the 2-year planning period. It also includes a detailed workplan that explains how the MPO plans to expend those funds during that time-frame. Most recent revision:
