The Johnson City Metropolitan Transportation Planning Organization (MTPO) serves as a regional transportation planning and coordination agency for the Johnson City Urbanized Area. This area includes Elizabethton, Jonesborough, Johnson City and part of the Town of Unicoi, as well as the urbanized* areas of Carter and Washington Counties. It should be noted the Urbanized Area is defined by the U.S. Census Bureau.

The MTPO is charged with the “Continuing, Cooperative and Comprehensive” (3Cs) planning process for transportation.

This process requires MTPO to work directly with local, state, and federal agencies and the general public to develop and administer a wide range of transportation program activities. Listed below are some of the major work areas of the MTPO.

• Johnson City 2030 Long Range Transportation Plan
• 2011-2014 Transportation Improvement Program
• Unified Planning Work Program (completed yearly)
