The Martin County MPO voted unanimously to amend its FY2026''2030 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) to include funding for a segment of State Road 710 and to add federal transit formula operating funds for the Port St. Lucie urbanized area.
Margie Tamplin, senior planner for the MPO, told the board that Amendment 3 adds the State Road 710 Southwest Warfield Boulevard project (from west of SE 120th Boulevard to the Martin'Okeechobee county line) with allocations spread across FY26, FY27, FY29 and FY30. "So we're just at a little above, $8,000,000 that's allocated to that project," Tamplin said.
Amendment 4 adds FTA formula operating funds for transit within the Martin County portion of the Port St. Lucie urbanized area. Tamplin said the combined federal and local funds added are "about just shy of $2,500,000." The funding was described as FTA formula operating support and local match within the large urban operating budget.
After the presentation a board member moved to approve amendments 3 and 4; the motion carried unanimously.
