Florida Transportation Plan 

OPP is in the process of an update to The Florida Transportation Plan (FTP), the state’s long-range plan guiding Florida’s transportation future. The FTP is a plan for all of Florida – and affects every resident, business, and visitor. The first of four documents that make up the plan, the Vision Element published in May 2020, provides a longer-term view of major trends, uncertainties, opportunities, and desired outcomes shaping the future of Florida’s transportation system. The FTP is important because it not only sets a long-range vision for the future, but it guides transportation decisions.  

We value your input because without it, the FTP cannot reflect the needs, values, and visions of the people who call Florida home and those who visit it. Visit our Get Involved page to share your ideas and be involved in the process as we continue to update the Policy, Implementation, and Performance Elements of the plan.
