The Coronavirus Supplemental Appropriations Act allocated funding to address the virus impacts related to the Highway Infrastructure Programs. Funds from this Act were provided to the State with a portion of the funds suballocated to urbanized areas with a population over 200,000. The Jackson Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) received an allocation of $3,538,655. During the MPO’s May meeting the Metropolitan Planning Policy Committee appointed a subcommittee to review and make recommendations for necessary revisions to the Jackson MPO’s guidelines in anticipation of the MPO issuing a Call for Projects in August.
