Partnerships
The Central Florida Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Alliance is a coalition of transportation and government organizations committed to addressing transportation challenges on a regional basis. The group is made up of representatives from the larger Central Florida area (view the member organizations here).
The Alliance has a policy board of eighteen members, three from each of the six member organizations. Representatives from the Florida Department of Transportation participate as well. The group meets quarterly and operates on the basis of consensus. Staff support is provided by MetroPlan Orlando. The Central Florida MPO Alliance has established goals and is seeking to maximize all opportunities presented by a regional transportation forum.
History of the Alliance
The Central Florida MPO Alliance was originally formed in June 1997 when MetroPlan Orlando formally entered into an agreement to coordinate transportation planning activities with the Volusia County MPO. These two areas shared common and immediate transportation issues, due in large part to the large number of commuters living in Volusia County and traveling to the Orlando Metro Area each day for work. As the Orlando-Volusia MPO Alliance, the MPOs banded together and improved transportation options for Central Florida through a great deal of coordination.
The success of the Orlando-Volusia MPO Alliance generated a great deal of enthusiasm in the region and encouraged other counties in the region to coordinate planning efforts so that other transportation needs and regional issues could be addressed in the same manner. The Central Florida MPO Alliance was officially established in January 2001 with the membership including the Brevard MPO (now the Space Coast TPO), Lake County (now the Lake-Sumter MPO), MetroPlan Orlando, and the Volusia County MPO. Since then, the Alliance's regional membership has expanded to include the Polk TPO and Ocala/Marion County TPO.
