Moving the Merrimack Valley

MVPC’s transportation program moves the valley forward. Staff facilitate the activities of the federally-designated Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (MVMPO). Through this body, staff help communities and MeVa—the regional transit authority—access federal aid, perform region-wide planning efforts, and support innovative roadway projects with demonstrative benefits.

About the MVMPO

MVMPO guides regional transportation planning by programming federal aid to support regional transportation projects and studies. Board members are selected based on an Memorandum of Understanding (also known the MPO Agreement) to support regionally-oriented decision-making.

How to Get Involved

The public is encouraged to follow and engage in the MVMPO’s planning processes:

• Attend monthly MVMPO meetings (check meetings & events sidebar);
• Attend monthly MV Safe Streets Alliance meetings (check meetings & events sidebar);
• Communicate with your appointed MVMPO board member;
• Provide comments on open public reviews (see below); and
• Schedule a meeting or call at a convenient time for you by contacting staff: [email protected].

What’s New/Open Public Reviews

MVMPO met at noon on January 28, 2025 at MVPC in Haverhill. During this meeting, the Board:

• Released an amendment to the Public Participation Plan for the 45-day comment period;
• Approved FFY2026-2030 Transportation Improvement Program Amendment #2;
• Reviewed the scope of work for the Canal Street Connector’s MassTrails award; and
• Adopted the states targets for Performance Measure 1 (Roadway Safety).

MVMPO’s February 25 meeting has been canceled due to weather. Staff are working to find a alternative meeting time and will provide updates as they become available.
