Transportation – Road and Bridge
The Road and Bridge Transportation page is dedicated to providing information to the public regarding unfunded needs on state and local road systems. MRPC’s Road and Bridge Transportation Advisory Committee (R/B TAC) plays an integral role in the development of the regional transportation priorities and was originally established in 1994 as the sole Transportation Advisory Committee. The committee consists of three representatives from each of MRPC’s counties and are made up of county commissioners or others appointed by the commission that have an interest or stake in transportation, along with ex-officio members representing public transit providers and Missouri Department of Transportation district officials. The purpose of the R/B TAC is to provide input on transportation needs in the region and to disseminate information to communities and residents.
