Since 1996, the Regional Council has partnered with the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) to plan transportation initiatives in Atchison, Gentry, Holt, Nodaway, and Worth Counties. Each year, with MoDOT's cooperation, these planning activities help ensure northwest Missouri 's transportation system remains safe and efficient. The Regional Council aims to improve every person's transportation experience by partnering with MoDOT, local elective officials, and the public.

In order to meet the goal set forth by the Regional Council, the Regional Planner must execute a year long work plan. The tasks included in this work plan, along with quarterly Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC) meetings, provide an outlet for MoDOT officials to gather input from the public. Public input is then considered in the planning process when discussing future projects.

The Northwest Missouri Regional Council of Governments has served as a leading voice for local planning efforts and firmly believes it serves as an important link between its localities and MoDOT. If you have any questions about transportation projects occurring locally, or need information, please do not hesitate to contact the Northwest Missouri Regional Council of Governments at (660) 582-5121 or email Amy Stoner.

To report any highways that need attention, please call 1-888-ASK-MODOT.
