2050 Metropolitan
Transportation Plan Update
ABOUT
The Lakeway Area Metropolitan Transportation Planning Organization (LAMTPO) operates as the regional transportation planning agency for portions of the urbanized areas in Morristown, Jefferson City, White Pine, Bean Station, and portions of Hamblen, Jefferson, Grainger, and Hawkins Counties, also closely coordinating with the Tennessee Department of Transportation throughout planning activities. LAMTPO is responsible for carrying out a continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive regional transportation planning process.
Why this MTP?
The Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) update spans the next quarter-century and represents the collective transportation goals of city and county governments, transit agencies, and TDOT.
Including an analysis of current regional trends as well as projections for what to expect in the future, including identifying how partners intend to invest federal transportation dollars to improve transportation across The Lakeway Region, The MTP represents community goals and priorities for transportation investment.
The plan outcomes serve to represent the region’s top priorities for state funding, based on current funding levels authorized by Congress from federal transportation dollars that are distributed by formula to states and metropolitan planning areas.
