2030 Transportation Plan for Fayette and Jessamine Counties  is a description of the Lexington Area Metropolitan Planning Organization’s (MPO) plans and investments in the transportation system to meet the future transportation needs within the planning area (currently comprised of both Fayette and Jessamine Counties). It describes both long and short-range choices and decisions reached through an on-going, comprehensive, coordinated, and cooperative transportation planning process.

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is the Lexington Urbanized Area (Fayette and Jessamine Counties) agenda of Federal-Aid Highway Programs and surface transportation projects; to include Federal Transit Administration (FTA) transit programs and expenditures.

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2006-FY 2009 four-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is the result of a comprehensive and realistic appraisal of the transportation needs of the MPO area communities coupled with an analysis of resources available to finance these needs. The TIP is a tool for multi-jurisdictional communication and public information. It helps the transportation community and the general public track the use of local, state, and federal transportation funds.

This FY-2009 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) was prepared by the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government (LFUCG) Division of Planning, Transportation Planning Section, as staff to the Lexington Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), under the direction of the Transportation Technical Coordinating Committee (TTCC) and Transportation Policy Committee (TPC).  This program is designed to cover a one-year period, beginning July 1, 2008 and ending June 30, 2009. Also, this UPWP describes the transportation planning process and defines those transportation planning activities, related tasks, timelines, and products that are to be developed or completed for Fayette and Jessamine Counties by or through the MPO. Costs attributed to individual work elements and source of its funding are also described in this UPWP.

The Long Range Transit Plan 2030 (LRTP 2030) is an amendment to the Long Range Transportation Plan 2030 which was completed by the Lexington Area Metropolitan Planning Organization in June 2004. The Transit Plan serves as a guideline for improving the public transit system of the Lexington Area for the next twenty five years. The Transit Plan determines potential transit improvement elements, presents transit demand analysis methodologies and a TransCAD-based transit model, identifies projects and implementation plan, estimates both operational and capital costs, and forecasts transit funds expected to be available to implement the recommended projects and improvement plans from now until the year 2030.
