Federal Targets

About

The most fundamental view of the region is its overall population, jobs and land. Changes here can impact demand for transportation, housing and environmental resources.

The transportation system is the backbone of the regional economy and community - connecting people to places, workers to employers and goods to markets. Continued investments in the transportation network are critical to allow for the movement of freight and people.


Commute & Transit

Traffic & Congestion

Infrastructure

The economy is the critical productive nexus where goods and services are provided and where revenue and salaries enter the hands of consumers. A healthy economy creates value for companies and workers. This group of indicators encompasses a range of measures related to economic activity.

The regional environment encompasses a range of indicators related to resilience and serve as a benchmark for key risks in our region - including greenhouse gas emissions, sea level rise, bay restoration and the quality of the air we breathe.

It is critical that the economy and housing market function in ways that reduce poverty and minimize disparities between communities by supporting jobs across wage levels and ensuring housing affordability at all income levels.

As the region’s metropolitan planning organization, MTC sets short-range performance targets to support national transportation goals. Review the Bay Area’s federal performance targets and its progress towards meeting targets for safety, infrastructure, reliability, freight, congestion, and the environment below.
