The Legacy Area Transportation Management Association (LATMA) was created in 2018 for the purpose of promoting public transportation and other mobility services for Northwest Plano’s Legacy business district.
The LATMA has received approval from the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) to receive federal funding to support TMA services.
The Interlocal Cooperation Act, Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code provides authority for the City of Plano and DART to enter into this agreement to fund a consultant contract whose services are of mutual interest and benefit to the City of Plano, DART, and the LATMA.
The Consultant study tasks include a) parking mobility and curb management evaluation; b) local circulator shuttle analysis; c) EV charging station analysis; d) dockless scooter evaluation; and e) project management. This study will establish baseline traffic conditions for each task above, identify problem areas, and develop recommended improvements with a goal to reduce vehicle delay, stops, and emissions which all lead to less traffic congestion and improved safety.
