Welcome to the home of the Lewis-Clark Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization.

Within this site you will find all the information you need to stay informed about the activities of the Lewis-Clark Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (LCVMPO) including our roles and function, and how you can participate in the transportation planning vision for our valley.
A good place to get oriented is our Frequently Asked Questions section, or the document "MPO Role and Function".

The Lewiston/Clarkston area has been designated as a bi-state MPO thus the structure is in place to consider the transportation needs of the region, rather than looking at transportation improvements in isolation by political jurisdiction.  This presents an opportunity for the valley to look at needs regionally and plan for the orderly improvement, development, and growth of the communities.   

MPOs must follow the federal requirements for planning in a metropolitan area. These requirements include development of a financially constrained plan that considers eight planning factors identified in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act (SAFETEA-LU).      

These planning factors are:

  • Support the economic vitality of the metropolitan area, especially by enabling global competitiveness, productivity, and efficiency.

  • Increase the safety of the transportation system for motorized and non-motorized users.

  • Increase the security of the transportation system for motorized and non-motorized users.

  • Increase the accessibility and mobility options available to people and freight.

  • Protect and enhance the environment, promote energy conservation, and improve the quality of life, and promote consistency between transportation improvements and State and local planned growth and economic development patterns.

  • Enhance the integration and connectivity of the transportation system, across and between modes, for people and for freight.

  • Promote efficient system management and operation.

  • Emphasize the preservation of the existing transportation system.test1
