    The Transportation Improvement Program Waco Urbanized Area For Fiscal Years 2021 Through 2024 Draft Document – April 20, 2020 Prepared by the Waco Metropolitan Planning Organization in Cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration and the Texas Department of Transportation Waco Metropolitan Planning Organization Section 1: Introduction 1.1 Background Transportation planning within the Waco Metropolitan Area is performed by the City of Waco, which in 1974 was designated as the Metropolitan Planning Organization by the Governor of Texas. This designation was in response to federal law which requires a cooperative, comprehensive, and continuing planning process for all federal transportation programs. This process requires input and acceptance from local governments within urbanized areas greater than 50,000 persons. The Waco Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) was created to meet these federal requirements for the Waco Urbanized Area. The MPO Staff organizes, researches, and coordinates the activities between the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and the Waco MPO Policy Board. The MPO Policy Board consists of 20 members who represent each government with populations greater than 5,000 or are home rule cities within the metropolitan area, three small cities representatives, and the Waco District Engineer of TxDOT. The Policy Board is the decision making component of the MPO and functions as the governing body for the MPO. Their duties include adopting policy and amending plans, including the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The Policy Board receives technical assistance from a Technical Committee comprised of engineering, planning, and other technical professionals from local governments, transit agencies, TxDOT, MPO Staff, and other transportation interests.
