• 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.
