Abstract:
As Florida’s urbanized areas grow and merge, neighboring jurisdictions experience interrelated problems and opportunities, and regional cooperation becomes an imperative. In the transportation sector, Florida’s metropolitan planning organizations (MPO) currently support coordinated decision making by bringing together relevant transportation players, such as local governments, transit system operators, airports, seaports, and toll authorities. Most MPOs in Florida, however, operate at the county scale, whereas Florida’s economy increasingly functions at regional scales, and few MPOs can coordinate transportation priorities or planning at this scale. Improved regional cooperation will require restructuring existing institutions and processes, perhaps through consolidation or formal partnering of transportation entities, to reflect urban growth, commuting patterns, funding goals, and other economic relationships.
