Under Federal planning guidelines MPOâs are required to submit a work program that highlights transportation planning projects into broadly categorized planning activities and explains the funding for each activity for a fiscal year (FY). This is done through a document called the UPWP. The funding is provided through the State of Tennessee (TDOT) from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), which are combined in a Consolidated Planning Grant. The funds are provided at an 80/20 match ratio, with 80% of the total funds provided by Federal funds, 5% being State and and 15% provided by Local.
