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.
