Regional Active Transportation Plan (RATP)
Building on Texas’ historic trail legacy and modern, data-driven safety practices, the Regional Active Transportation Plan (RATP) establishes a vision for a safe, connected, and accessible system that supports all forms of human-powered and low-speed electric travel. While the plan emphasizes walking and bicycling as core transportation modes, it also recognizes the regional importance of equestrian, paddling, and recreational trail connectivity.
The plan was approved by the Policy Board on May 20, 2026.
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:
The FY2026 – 2027 UPWP was approved by TPPB on June 18, 2025. The most updated version is below.
Public Engagement Plan (PEP)
The Public Engagement Plan (PEP) serves as the official policy document and toolkit for board members, advisory committees, staff and the public.
The public engagement process begins and ends with you in mind. KTMPO intentionally designed each section of this plan to connect with you, your points of view and interests, and your comments about specific transportation issues and concerns that may otherwise be unknown.
KTMPO believes that creating a diverse and inclusive environment is not only the right thing to do, but it also fuels innovation, enhances creativity, and drives the collective success of our region and the State of Texas. We want to develop a culture of mutual concern where relational connections are built, everyone feels heard and respected, and we all come away with the desire to make a difference. To accomplish these values, KTMPO commits to advancing transportation planning by going above and beyond the regulatory requirements of our agency by removing barriers to public involvement. We recognize that achieving true diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility is an ongoing journey, and we remain dedicated to continuously improving and evolving in these areas. Authentic community partnerships are built when planning concerns are simultaneously shifted between the public and decision-makers through policy boards and advisory committees with continued communication toward resolving transportation related issues.
KTMPO board meetings, advisory meetings, and public comment periods are open to the public and hosted in-person and online.
The previous Public Participation Plan (PPP) was written in 2007 and amended every few years to reflect changes in legislation and outreach techniques. This PEP is a major redevelopment of the PPP with the purpose of updating legislation and outreach techniques, and going one step further by implementing public engagement initiatives that align with best practices.
KTMPO approved PEP 2025 Amendment on January 21, 2026.
