The Prioritized Project List (PPL) is updated annually and contains a list of unfunded highway, roadway, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian projects that have been ranked for funding. The PPL serves as a bridge document between MetroPlan Orlando’s 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan and the five-year Transportation Improvement Program. Once long-term needs are determined by the 2050 Plan, projects are prioritized and ranked on the Prioritized Project List, a project funding waiting list. When funding becomes available, the project/project phase moves into the five-year funding program.
DRAFT PPL PREVIEW
The MetroPlan Orlando Board will consider the Draft 2026 Prioritized Project List at its July 8, 2026 Board Meeting. Information on how to attend that meeting is available in the Calendar section of our website.
Prior to this, a Preview of the PPL is available for public and partner agency feedback. Feedback will be incorporated into a final draft of the PPL, which will be presented to Board and advisory committees in the June/July meeting cycle. Written comments for the public record may be emailed to Slade Downs, AICP at Slade.Downs@MetroPlanOrlando.gov. Live public comments will be accepted at the Board and advisory committee meetings in the May/June committee cycles.

PRIORITIZATION PROCESS
MetroPlan Orlando uses a data-informed and context-sensitive approach to evaluate and assess candidate transportation projects for the Prioritized Project List (PPL). Consistent with FHWA’s Transportation Performance Management guidance, the intent of this process is to identify, select, and fund projects which best address regional transportation goals, objectives, and established targets.
It is important to note, most new projects or project phases are typically added into the fifth year of the Work Program. Once a project in the PPL has been fully funded through construction in the TIP and the FDOT Work Program, it is then removed from the PPL. Any projects/project phases remaining on the PPL can be advanced to a higher priority over time, and new projects can eventually be added to this list of priority projects.
THE CURRENT PPL
The PPL is created in conjunction with the Transportation Improvement Program and shows which projects are next in line for federal and state funding. Refer to the current PPL, adopted by the MetroPlan Orlando Board on July 9, 2025, for more details:
