Unified Planning Work Program
The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) is a document that incorporates all transportation planning and supporting comprehensive planning activities in the Bend Metropolitan Area during the fiscal year and serves as a means to satisfy the applicable section of the Code of Federal Regulations (23 CFR 450.308).
It is intended to provide a framework for the coordination of transportation planning efforts by local, State, and regional agencies through the Bend Metropolitan Planning Organization Policy Board. The UPWP outlines four specific work tasks and is the federally mandated and federally funded portion of the program, required to be fulfilled by the BMPO.
The appendices describe the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program being undertaken in central Oregon and the significant planning projects being undertaken by other agencies and jurisdictions in the BMPO study area.
In addition, the appendices describe how the Bend Metropolitan Planning Organization's transportation planning process meets all applicable requirements of Self Certification Process (23 CFR 450.334).
Annual Budget / Financials
The BMPO is a stand-alone intergovernmental entity separate from the participating jurisdictions and must prepare and adopt an annual budget. The budget is closely linked to the annual Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP).
