Meetings/Hearings Calendar
LPA Public Involvement
As the Local Public Agency (LPA) makes decisions on transportation projects that utilize federal-aid funding or require a federal action, the LPA must consider input from the public and community stakeholders.
MPO Public Involvement Plans and Upcoming Meetings
Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) were created by Congress in 1962 through the Federal Aid Highway Act. This legislation focused on planning for urban areas, rather than cities.
Non-Metropolitan Consultation Public Comment Form
INDOT engages the public for input in transportation planning and capital improvement programming, through which INDOT and its planning partners identify improvement strategies and develop projects to enhance the multi-mode transportation system throughout the state. INDOT is constantly looking for and receiving comments and input from citizens, elected officials, and transportation professionals to support our transportation planning process. Please take some time to answer the survey questions and express any other thoughts/concerns so that INDOT may better support you!
The public comment is open through February 4th. For more information, refer to the Non-Metropolitan Local Officials Consultation Guidebook.
