The RTP identifies tough topics the region faces over the next few decades. The Strategic Agenda identifies tough topics that PRTPO is tracking. The Action Plan includes priority short-term actions or initiatives that PRTPO or other stakeholders can take to move the needle on the most pressing concerns. These concepts are under development.
The State Facilities Action Plan offers a more detailed look at WSDOT’s transportation system assets in the Peninsula Region, top concerns WSDOT is working to manage, and some important statistics and performance measures. It is updated periodically as needed by WSDOT.
Find prior editions of PRTPO’s Regional Transportation Plan, including the original 1995 RTP that laid the foundation for coordinated regional planning thereafter between local agencies and with WSDOT. Subsequent editions built on that foundation, reflecting on-going insights and emerging issues and strengthening the policy framework.
PRTPO has determined that the Countywide Planning Policies and locally adopted Comprehensive Plans in place across the Peninsula Region are consistent with and supportive of the long-range Regional Transportation Plan.

As a rural Regional Transportation Planning Organization, PRTPO’s authorities are defined by relevant sections of RCW 47.80 and WAC 468-86. This includes its minimum requirements in maintaining a long-range regional transportation plan. Click here for a pdf of the complete regulatory framework governing PRTPO’s work.
PRTPO is required to review its RTP every two years to ensure it is current and responsive to the region’s needs. This is in addition to the regular annual update to its RTP project list. Any needed changes to policies, the strategic regional agenda, the action plan, or other elements can be made. Documentation of the review is submitted to WSDOT.
This is a checklist of basic requirements PRTPO must satisfy in its regional transportation plan, as a guide to assist reviewers.
