What is a Metropolitan Transportation Plan?
Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) are federally required to produce a 20-year long-range Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) and update it regularly to comply with the “continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive” (3-C) planning process.
Ultimately, an approved MTP should describe the existing Fairbanks urbanized area transportation system, outline potential future needs of the community, and summarize planned projects to meet those needs. The MTP should include project costs and planned timeframes of implementation.
30-Day Public Comment Period is Closed.
Tune in to our Technical committee & policy board meetings in december 2026 to see the comment response summary and participate in the decision-making process.
