Summary
The Martin County MPO unanimously approved a TIP amendment to add FDOT's I‑95 guardrail project and adopted USDOT/FDOT safety performance targets as recommended by staff.
The Martin County MPO on Feb. 23 approved an amendment to the FY26–30 Transportation Improvement Program to add an FDOT‑requested guardrail project on I‑95. FDOT representatives were present and staff said the amendment aligns the MPO TIP with the state STIP; the board approved the amendment unanimously.
Following that vote, the board adopted the state and USDOT safety performance targets for roadway fatalities and serious injuries, endorsing a Vision Zero approach that staff recommended. The motion to adopt the targets passed unanimously.
Both votes were procedural and intended to keep Martin County’s TIP and performance reporting consistent with FDOT and federal performance measure requirements. FDOT representatives remained available for questions during the public hearing.
