Unified Planning Work Program

The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) is an annual, federally required, certification document describing the transportation planning activities to be undertaken in and surrounding the Central Lane metropolitan area. Development of the UPWP provides local agencies participating in the transportation planning process with an opportunity to identify transportation planning needs, objectives and products. Within the guidelines set by the U.S. Department of Transportation, the UPWP sets priorities for transportation planning activities within the region.

Staff from the following agencies participate in the development of the UPWP and in the completion of its work activities:

• Lane Council of Governments
• City of Eugene
• City of Springfield
• City of Coburg
• Lane County
• Lane Transit District
• Lane Regional Air Pollution Authority
• Oregon Department of Transportation
• Federal Highway Administration
• Federal Transit Administration

The UPWP contains several elements:

1. The planning tasks and studies that will be conducted over a one- to two-year period;
2. All federally funded studies as well as all relevant state and local planning activities conducted without federal funds;
3. Funding sources identified for each project;
4. A schedule of activities; and
5. The agency responsible for each task or study.
