The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) describes the federally funded planning activities that the Regional Planning Commission will conduct and products that will be created in fiscal year 2025. The UPWP covers four Metropolitan Planning Areas (MPAs) in southeast Louisiana: New Orleans, South Tangipahoa, Slidell, and Covington- Mandeville.
The activities described in this document reflect one year of a multi-year program to implement the strategies and achieve the objectives of the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). These strategies are derived from federal mandates, as codified in legislation, conducted in the context of a continuing, comprehensive, locally focused planning process.
