The MTPO began operations in 1982, and staff have worked on numerous highway and public transportation projects in the region. Major highway projects include the Quad Cities Beltway, State of Franklin Road in Johnson City, and I-181/I-26 corridor project. The MTPO staff also works closely with the Johnson City Transit System in coordinating capital projects and operating and planning activities. The Johnson City Organization is referred to by both the acronyms "MTPO" and "MPO" and is part of the statewide and national network of Metropolitan Planning Organizations established to deliver and manage transportation programs on a regional basis. Within the region the agency is referred to as MTPO to recognize the stated mission of providing transportation planning services rather than zoning, land use, or general planning activities.
