Municipal and County
Projects
Over $164 million was suballocated
for projects that were selected
by each of the State's three Metropolitan
Planning Organizations (MPO). Projects
may be located on the state, county
or municipal system, provided that
they meet federal criteria. Each
MPO selected projects for funding
based on its own prioritization
process, but readiness for advancement
played a major part in MPO project
selection.
The three MPO's in New Jersey are:
The North
Jersey Transportation Planning Authority
(NJTPA) covers the northern
counties of Bergen, Essex, Hudson,
Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth,
Morris, Ocean, Passaic, Somerset,
Sussex, Union and Warren.
The Delaware
Valley Regional Planning Commission
(DVRPC) is responsible for the
counties of Burlington, Camden,
Gloucester and Mercer.
The South
Jersey Transportation Planning Organization
(SJTPO) is responsible for the
southern counties of Atlantic, Cape
May, Cumberland and Salem.
