Minutes/Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization Technical Committee February 7, 2019 Page 3 • Metropolitan Transportation Plan. Mr. Barron explained that the current Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) expired in May 2018. He stated that it was our original intent to have our new plan adopted by that time. Mr. Barron explained that this was due to a number of delays including financial issues for funding the current MTP update. He stated that staff is in the process of preparing this plan. Mr. Barron explained that staff will bring a draft to the Technical Committee in March 2019 and approval in June 2019. He stated that because our MTP expired in May 2018 we cannot make any amendments to the current Transportation Improvement Program until the new MTP is adopted.
