How can we help you?

As the federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organization for the Springfield metro area, the OTO is required to maintain & update a plan for public involvement for our planning activities. The Public Participation Plan is updated every three years. It must be developed in consultation with all interested parties, as defined in the Code of Federal Regulations. You are invited to complete this brief survey available using the link below.

On February 1, 2023, the US Department of Transportation announced that Ozarks Transportation Organization was awarded a Safe Streets and Roads for All grant, in the amount of $228,800. This grant will provide support for the development of a comprehensive Safety Action Plan. We will be updating this webpage with further information as the project progresses.
