General Background

For over 30 years, the federally mandated "continuing, coordinated and comprehensive" (3C) urban transportation planning process in Washtenaw County has occurred at two levels: the Washtenaw Area Transportation Study or WATS (previously known as the Ann Arbor-Ypsilanti Urban Area Transportation Study or UATS), comprised of those governmental units and related agencies within Washtenaw County; and regionally at the Southeast Michigan Council of Governments (SEMCOG), the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the seven-county region of southeast Michigan. Because the 2030 Long Range Transportation Plan Update for Washtenaw County is incorporated into the Regional Transportation Plan for the seven county Southeast Michigan area as previous plans have been, both agencies are responsible for its completion.
