Streamlined Project Delivery Team

The development of transportation projects, particularly regional projects, has become increasingly multi-faceted over the years in response to extensive region-wide commuter travel, more stringent environmental policies, and new public/private funding partnerships. The purpose of the Streamlined Project Delivery is to assist transportation agencies and the Regional Transportation Council advance critical regional projects through project development and move them to construction as soon as possible. Working in close partnership with the region’s transportation agencies and their respective staff, this team helps reinforce regional efforts by providing additional resources to develop and support projects and procedures to get these urgent transportation projects built sooner.

Projects the team is currently working on include:

• Regional Outer Loop
• Tower 55
• Regional Passenger Rail Corridors
     -Cotton Belt Corridor
     -Frisco (BNSF) Corridor
     -McKinney Corridor
     -Waxahachie Corridor
