Title
SPOT 8 Update - Statewide Programming & Regional Impact Target Modal Mixes
Daniel Spruill, MPO Staff
Body
In late Spring 2026, the NC Department of Transportation released technical scores for all SPOT 8 projects along with the draft list of programmed Statewide Mobility projects. Statewide Mobility projects that are not programmed are eligible for consideration of programming with Regional Impact funds, a process referred to as “cascading”. Staff will provide a review of the technical scores and draft Statewide Mobility programming results.
A target modal mix recommendation will be presented to the Executive Board for their consideration. The target modal mix is a component of the MPO’s adopted prioritization methodology that guides staff in the development of a draft point assignment.
During June, the MPO will assign 2500 local input points to Regional Impact and cascaded Statewide Mobility projects. A draft point assignment for the 2500 local input points for all transportation modes based on the adopted prioritization methodology will be posted to the MPO’s website in June. The point assignment will be posted for public review and comment through August 18, 2026, on the CAMPO website. The TCC and Executive Board will be asked to recommend and approve the final point assignment for the Regional Impact category at their respective August meetings.
