Federal regulations mandate that Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) produce three required products and two analyses, along with a Public Involvement Plan. These documents guide the long-, medium- and short-term transportation planning activities for the region, and ensure compliance with clean air laws.

Regional Transportation Plan (Plan)

The Plan includes the NYMTC members vision for the 10 county planning area, and lays out the long-range framework for its transportation system.

Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)

The TIP outlines all of the federally-funded transportation projects proposed for the NYMTC area over a five year period.

Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP)

Developed annually, the UPWP describes all transportation-related planning for the program year.

Congestion Management Process

Model-based estimates of current, and forecasts of future, traffic congestion in the region and specific measures to address them.

Transportation Conformity

Contains a regional mobile source emissions analysis that reflects TIP and Plan compliance with Clean Air Act requirements and NYS SIP.
