<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Program</strong> <strong>Development</strong> <strong>Process</strong> (<strong>APDP</strong>) December 15, 2011<br />

MPOs play a vital role in the planning and development <strong>of</strong> transportation projects and services<br />

throughout the urbanized areas <strong>of</strong> <strong>Indiana</strong>. Together with the INDOT District Offices, they serve as<br />

primary sources <strong>of</strong> local input and as fundamental cooperating partners in the mode‐specific planning<br />

and program implementation process. <strong>Indiana</strong>’s fourteen MPOs have jurisdictional responsibility for<br />

transportation planning in urbanized areas.<br />

For more information on <strong>Indiana</strong>’s MPOs and contact information for each MPO agency, please visit the<br />

<strong>Indiana</strong> MPO Council website: http://www.indianampo.com<br />

Rural Planning Organizations (RPOs) – Also known as Regional Planning Organizations, serve the<br />

transportation planning needs <strong>of</strong> small urban and rural areas <strong>of</strong> the state. RPOs perform eligible<br />

planning activities in order to provide planning support to local communities. The planning activities <strong>of</strong><br />

RPOs are aimed at supporting INDOT Central and District Office Planning staff with public outreach,<br />

technical assistance to local <strong>of</strong>ficials and the collection <strong>of</strong> transportation‐related data.<br />

RPOs are also responsible for<br />

transportation planning funds in the<br />

form <strong>of</strong> a matching grant to regional<br />

planning commissions.<br />

Non‐MPO Areas –Include small towns<br />

and cities not included in an MPO area.<br />
