- 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/.... for agenda packets and more information.
PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT - Share your input! *
WAMPO has kicked off the second phase of public engagement for the long-range Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) that plans multimodal transportation for the next 25 years. It is called WAMPO MTP 2050.
The goal is to look to look at the current state of transportation in the region and design for future transportation needs based on the community priorities for transportation improvements, including safety, ease of travel time, creating a more equitable system, and improving connectivity for all modes of travel.
Help WAMPO improve the region's transportation system by providing your input. The survey is available until February 29, 2024, and is available at www.wampo.org/mtp2050
