The Capital Area MPO recently adopted a new strategic plan to help guide our region’s transportation program through the next several years. CAMPO is expanding staff to implement the new strategic plan. The Triangle region continues to experience unprecedented growth, producing a need for infrastructure improvements that offers a range of travel choices and are compatible with the character and development of our communities, sensitive to the environment, improve quality of life, and are safe and accessible for all. The Capital Area MPO works at the heart of identifying, planning, and implementing those improvements and this position will perform regional transportation planning with emphasis on Congestion Management Process (CMP) and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) coordination and implementation in the region. The primary focus for the first year of this position will be to re-imagine the MPO’s congestion management process (CMP), including data analysis and coordination with regional partners.

The position will also be involved in monitoring and coordinating regional activities related to the implementation of the regional Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Deployment Plan. This position will provide input to NCDOT for project development activities for various TIP projects in the region. The position may be filled at either a Transportation Planner or Senior Transportation Planner level. This job may supervise subordinate staff and/or be expected to lead teams of staff and provide direction and supervision related to the management of specific projects if filled at the Senior Transportation Planner level.

Job Type: Hybrid.
