TRANSPORTATION AGENCY FOR MONTEREY COUNTY
Memorandum
To: 

Technical Advisory Committee

From:

Michael Zeller, Director of Programming & Project Delivery

Meeting Date:

October 1, 2020

Subject:

Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program Update


RECOMMENDED ACTION:
RECEIVE update on the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program for federal fiscal years 2021 to 2024.
SUMMARY:
The Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (AMBAG) is required by federal regulations to prepare and maintain the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program.  AMBAG updates the program every two years and is in the process of preparing the federal fiscal year 2021 to 2024 document.  More detailed information and the schedule for the updates for the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program are included in the attached memorandum from AMBAG.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None at this time. Federally funded projects must be programmed in the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program before they can be initiated.
DISCUSSION:
Transportation Agency staff is requesting that the Technical Advisory Committee receive the information and schedule included in the attached memorandum from AMBAG on the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program update. Since all transportation projects which use federal funding or are of regional significance need to be included in the program, local jurisdictions should review the draft program to ensure projects are reflected accurately. Transportation Agency staff will also assist with the review and coordinate with local jurisdictions on any project updates that may be necessary.  Sasha Tepedelenova from AMBAG will provide a presentation of the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program update to the Committee at the October meeting.
