The Capital Area Regional Transportation Study (CARTS) Technical Committee provides recommendations to the Board regarding regional transportation plans, as well as transportation needs, issues, and opportunities in the region. The Committee addresses the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (long range) and Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) (short range) project reviews and amendments. They also consider and offer recommendations regarding work programs, urban boundary and system review and designations, data collection, and special transportation projects/studies.

CARTS members, usually transportation/public works staff, are appointed by their member agency or municipality. CARTS meetings are generally held on the 1st Tuesday of the month, unless otherwise noted in the calendar.
