ACOG Metropolitan Planning Organization Committees

ACOG Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Committees

Multimodal transportation planning and implementation require a unified policy direction for all modes of travel. This direction is provided by a committee structure, which was developed jointly by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation and local governments within the ACOG MPO area.

The structure consists of number of modal committees anchored by a Policy Committee (PC) and a Technical Committee (TC).

ACOG MPO Technical Committee (TC)

Technical review and guidance for the ACOG MPO planning programs are provided by the ACOG MPO Technical Committee (TC). This committee is generally comprised of city planners, city engineers and traffic managers, and also includes representatives of various modes, environmental agencies, the Oklahoma Turnpike Authority, ODOT and the federal transportation agencies.

ACOG MPO PC

The ACOG MPO Policy Committee (PC) has 45 members and is the single policy group for regional transportation decision making in the ACOG MPO area. The voting membership is composed of locally elected officials, state transportation department managers and commissioners, and designees from other local agencies, representing various transportation modes.

APTAC

Technical review and discussion on regional planning topics are provided by the Areawide Planning and Technical Advisory Committee (APTAC). This committee is generally composed of city planners and representatives of various local and state agencies.
