Permian Basin MPO issues call for projects

MIDLAND In conjunction with the development of the 2050 Long-Range Transportation Plan the Permian Basin MPO is asking for the public’s input to identify transportation projects in the Midland-Odessa area. The MPO is the designated leader coordinating transportation planning in Ector, Midland, and Martin counties and the cities of Odessa and Midland.

The Long-Range Transportation Plan includes potential transportation projects across numerous funding categories and project selection scoring criteria. The document will cover a 25-year planning period from 2025-2050.

Public hearings and meetings to discuss the updated list of projects will be scheduled in November and December 2023.

A project submission form is available online at permianbasinmpo.com. Completed project submission form(s) should be returned to the MPO by the stated timeline. Forms can be mailed to Permian Basin MPO at P.O. Box 60916, Midland, TX 79711 or emailed to [email protected].
