Mission Statement

The Baltimore Regional Transportation Board (BRTB) is the federally designated metropolitan planning organization (MPO) for the Baltimore region. The BRTB is housed at and staffed by the Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC). The Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC) is a nonprofit organization that works collaboratively with the chief elected officials in the region to create initiatives to improve our quality of life and economic vitality.

Description

BMC connects the Baltimore region - how we travel, work and live - by identifying mutual interests and developing collaborative strategies, plans and programs. BMC is a resource for the region.

The BRTB works with local, state, regional, and federal partners to coordinate plans and planning activities, provide data and analysis to decision makers, and coordinate regional programs to advance transportation, safety, freight movement, budgeting for future transportation projects and programs. The BRTB’s efforts are based on a continuing, cooperative and comprehensive (3-C) planning process. All transportation projects and programs that receive federal surface transportation funding in our region go through this planning process.
