What does the IMPO do?

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization (IMPO) is Central Indiana’s federally-designated regional planning organization. The IMPO develops short and long range plans to support local governments and advance the region’s goals in transportation, housing, safety, sustainability, and other quality-of-life issues. The IMPO also tracks and distributes certain transportation funds to local governments in the region for roads, transit, trails, and other means of moving people and goods around Central Indiana. Our planning region includes almost 1,500 square miles, 36 jurisdictions, and approximately 1.78 million residents.
