Scope of Work
In September 2005, The Total Transportation Policy Committee approved the formation of a Kansas Transportation Enhancements (TE) Committee to review and rank projects in the MARC Metropolitan Planning Area in response to a request from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT).
An evaluation process will be developed this year by staff and adopted by the Kansas TE Committee. KDOT will incorporate the input from MARC into its review and selection processes.
NEXT MEETING:
The Kansas Transportation Enhancements Committee will meet to review and recommend projects as needed during 2008. Nothing currently scheduled.
