The Abilene MPO is the regional transportation planning agency responsible for working with local, state, and federal agencies including transportation providers and neighborhood groups in Taylor County, Texas. The goal is to accomplish regional planning under one voice, that will provide the greatest benefit while at the same time reflecting the concerns of the communities within the study area. The MPO works with various agencies to develop transportation plans, travel modes, thoroughfare plans, transit plans, bicycle and pedestrian plans. Also, the MPO works with the state on funding issues for transportation improvements, on project planning issues, and on issues such as environmental impacts and air quality. The MPO also works with local governments to coordinate land use and transportation planning.
