Bloomington MPO Policy Committee, April 24, 2026

The Bloomington MPO Policy Committee meeting held on April 24, 2026, focused primarily on transportation planning and project updates within the Bloomington urbanized area. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of amendments to the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), which involved funding reallocations and schedule adjustments for several infrastructure projects such as the downtown curb ramps phase 5, College and Walnut phase one, and various INDOT paving and signal modernization projects. The committee approved these TIP amendments unanimously. Additionally, the committee discussed the need to update the existing interlocal agreement governing the MPO, which dates back over 40 years. A motion to recommend that the mayor and county commissioners prepare a new interlocal agreement was proposed but failed to pass after a roll call vote. The meeting also covered public hearing notices for transit route improvements and speed limit changes, updates on traffic data management, and ongoing project statuses. No new contracts or vendor selections were directly addressed, but the discussions on funding allocations and project scheduling are relevant to future procurement activities.
