The Hillsborough Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is conducting a study to identify transit service needs in Hillsborough County.

"Our goal is to produce a comprehensive transportation plan that includes not only road, sidewalk and trail improvements, but also a transit network that provides the cost-efficient technologies to give people options to get where they want and need to be.  We encourage the public to participate throughout the planning process, so that the plan will provide the connectivity that people are telling us they want." - Mayor Joe Affronti, MPO Chair.

Study findings and recommendations will be considered during the MPO Long Range Transportation Plan update in 2008. The study will also support updates to local government comprehensive plans and the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART) Transit Development Plan.
