Transportation Policy Body July 2024

ABOUT WAMPO
The Wichita Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (WAMPO) is the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Wichita metropolitan region. MPOs are federally required regional policy bodies in urbanized areas with populations over 50,000. MPOs recognize the critical links between transportation and other societal goals, such as economic health, air quality, social equity, environmental resource consumption, and overall quality of life.

Locally, the Wichita Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (WAMPO) is responsible, in cooperation with the State of Kansas and Wichita Transit, for carrying out the metropolitan transportation planning process in 22 cities and 3 counties in South Central Kansas.

Transportation Policy Body (TPB)
The Transportation Policy Body (TPB) is made up of local elected officials, as well as regional and state representatives. The TPB develops and implements WAMPO's transportation plans and makes the final approval of these documents and any amendments to them. The TPB is our regional forum for transportation planning and establishes the vision for the future of our transportation system.

Transportation Policy Body Meetings are held every 2nd Tuesday of the month at 3:00 PM. Visit www.wampo.org/transportation-policy-body for agenda packets and more information.
