Regional transportation planning in California is a dynamic process. It involves the interaction of federal, state, regional, and local agencies and the consideration of multiple plans and programs. As the county’s state-designated Regional Transportation Planning Agency, the Transportation Agency for Monterey County is tasked with developing a Regional Transportation Plan. The Regional Transportation Plan provides a basis for budgeting State and federal transportation funds to transportation projects within the county over a long-range time frame.

The Transportation Agency anticipates adoption of goals, policy objectives and performance measures in early 2024; and the draft Regional Transportation Plan is expected to be released to the public for review and comment in December 2025.
