Metropolitan Planning Organization for San Luis Obispo County
The San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG), the federally-designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for San Luis Obispo County, is located along California’s Central Coast. SLOCOG adopted its first the Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) in 2015.
The 2015 RTP/SCS encourages new growth in existing communities and near existing commercial corridors. It builds upon planning concepts that were first introduced with the region’s blueprint planning effort, Community 2050, adopted in 2008, including the concept of focused growth. The 2015 RTP/SCS focuses growth in areas already served by transit. It establishes Target Development Areas (TDAs) which are existing centers of development within each community, generally served by transit. These strategies, together with transportation system management, transportation demand management, and trip reduction programs, are responsible for reducing transportation-related GHG emissions in the region.
