The Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration conduct an evaluation of Michigan Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) as part of the Transportation Management Area (TMA) Certification Reviews every four years, as required by federal law. Public comments are a vital element of the certification review, as they allow citizens to provide direct input on the transportation planning process for their transportation planning area.

For more information on the federal certification process, please contact Laurel Joseph, Director of Transportation Planning, by phone at 616.776.7610 or email.
