We're Back!

As you might recall, we received some good news on the environmental front. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) recently determined that the San Antonio Metropolitan area is currently meeting Federal Clean Air standards. Not only is this good news for the health of our community, but it also means that our Metropolitan Transportation Plan Update no longer faces a shorter development schedule. This has allowed us to return to our original schedule of completing the Mobility 2035 Plan by December of 2009. The extra time allowed us to take a more thorough and carefully considered look at our land use scenarios and our transportation strategies to insure that we develop the best possible Metropolitan Transportation Plan for the San Antonio-Bexar County area.


Next Steps:

We are now ready to take the next step in the process. You're invited to the next series of public workshops. An ever-growing population equals ever-increasing transportation needs. By the year 2035, there will be over 600,000 more people in Bexar County. But how will our area grow?

  • Will growth continue to spread outside of Loop 1604?

  • Will growth become concentrated along new high-capacity transit corridors?

  • Will new in-fill developments attract growth inside Loop 1604?

How would you like to see our community grow? The San Antonio-Bexar County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is updating the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) for 2035. The MTP is the basic framework for all of our transportation planning. We need your help in selecting a growth scenario (or combination of scenarios) which will then be used to select roadway, transit, rideshare, bicycle and pedestrian improvement projects for funding over the next 25 years.

While realizing that significant governmental policy changes would be needed to successfully manage regional growth, it is important to understand how different types of growth affect our transportation system and ultimately our community's quality of life. Come learn more about the various growth scenarios developed for the region and offer your opinions on the direction we should take in the future.

About Mobility 2035:

Welcome to the Mobility 2035 MySpace site established by the San Antonio-Bexar County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) to provide information on the update process for the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP).

Additional information can be found at www.mtp2035.org.


Frequently Asked Questions:

What is a Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)?

A Metropolitan Planning Organization, also known as an MPO, is an agency created by federal law to provide local input for urban transportation planning and the allocation of federal transportation funding to cities with populations greater than 50,000. The San Antonio-Bexar County MPO's boundary includes Bexar County and parts of Comal and Guadalupe Counties.

What is the MPO's mission?

The MPO's mission is to provide a cooperative, continuous and comprehensive transportation planning process for the safe and efficient movement of people and goods consistent with the region's overall economic, social, and environmental goals. The MPO places a special emphasis on providing equal access to a variety of transportation choices and effective public involvement in the transportation planning process.

What does the MPO do?

The MPO is responsible for conducting the urban transportation planning process that the MPO planning area - which includes Bexar County and parts of Comal and Guadalupe counties - needs to follow in order to receive over $200 million annually in federal and state transportation funding. This planning process is accomplished primarily through three related activities and documents - the Metropolitan Transportation Plan, the Transportation Improvement Program, and the Unified Planning Work Program.

The Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) is a 25-year, long-range plan and the basic framework for all of the MPO's transportation planning. The MTP is a guide used to plan for future mobility needs in the MPO study area and the expenditure of federal, state, and local funds that become available for these projects. The current plan, Mobility 2030: San Antonio-Bexar County Metropolitan Transportation Plan, was approved in December 2004 and programs approximately $8 billion dollars worth of transportation improvements through 2030.

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a three-year financially constrained list of transportation projects that have been approved for federal and state funding by the MPO Transportation Policy Board and is updated every two years and amended quarterly. The current TIP covers FY 2008 to FY 2011 projects that will be let over the next three years.

The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) outlines the MPO's work products for the State Fiscal Year (Oct 1 - Sept 30). The UPWP identifies tasks which are to be accomplished during the fiscal year and presents the budget to accomplish those tasks. The MPO's UPWP can therefore be viewed as the MPO Operating budget for the given fiscal year.

Why are the MPO and MTP important to me?

Transportation planning is important to everyone. As the population grows in the area, the MPO needs to ensure that the transportation system remains safe and efficient. The MPO gives the public an opportunity to identify future mobility needs to ensure that tax dollars are used for the greater good of the community.

How can I help?

The MPO is in the process of updating the MTP out to the year 2035. There will be four (4) Scenario Workshops held in February and March 2009. The public is strongly urged to attend to help identify the needs in our area and plan for the future!
