Welcome to the Metropolitan Topeka Planning Organization (MTPO) 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) Update project website. A LRTP is a Federally required planning activity that analyzes current and future transportation needs throughout the Topeka region. The project is a multi-modal study and considers roadways, public transportation, non-motorized (bicyclists and pedestrians), rail and freight movements, and aviation operations to the year 2040. When complete, the plan will identify prioritized multi-modal transportation investments.

The 2040 LRTP update began in June 2011 and will continue to April 2012. We encourage to check back often as LRTP materials will be periodically added to this site. Also, we encourage you to participate in the planning process. Please check for news regarding upcoming meetings and click the "Get Involved" tab to participate in surveys and to comment about transportation issues throughout the community.
