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.
