• Abstract:
  Regional Transportation Planning is long-range (20+ years), area-wide, and involves federal, state, regional, and local agencies; Native American Tribal Governments, public entities, private and community based organizations, and individuals working together to identify future regional transportation needs and to plan how these needs can and will be met. Within the California Department of Transportation (Department), regional transportation planning is done by transportation planners in the Districts and in the Office of Regional and Interagency Planning (ORIP), in the Division of Transportation Planning at Headquarters, Sacramento. This Handbook describes the respective roles and responsibilities for District Transportation Planners with regional transportation planning duties, and for Transportation Planners within ORIP. The focus is on Department interaction with the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) and Regional Transportation Planning Agencies (RTPAs) in regard to Overall Work (OWPs) and Regional Transportation Plans (RTPs), with a special emphasis on the monitoring of ORIP-administered transportation planning funds: state Rural Planning Assistance (RPA) and federal Consolidated Planning Grant (CPG). The Handbook is supplemented annually with OWP Guidance packages and with requests for grant applications. The annual supplements focus on information that changes from year-to-year. This Handbook replaces the May 18, 1989 version of the Regional Planning Delegation Handbook, all earlier versions thereof, and any interim or proposed partial revisions. 11 Appendices, 11 figures, 90 p.
