Transportation Planning Section

Planning is a critical process for CDOT and its local partners.  Throughout the process, CDOT works extensively with the 15 Transportation Planning Regions (TPRs), local elected officials and the public to ensure that everyone has a voice in the statewide and regional planning processes. CDOT develops updates to Colorado's Long-Range Transportation Plan and manages studies and research efforts of statewide significance.   The Department also coordinates planning efforts for Colorado's 15 TPRs. There are ten rural TPRs and five urban TPRs, also called Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs).
