CIRTPA

The Central Iowa Regional Transportation Planning Alliance (CIRTPA) was created in 1994 to carry out transportation planning for the central Iowa region, excluding the planning areas of the Des Moines Area MPO and the Ames Area MPO.

CIRTPA serves as the designated regional transportation planning agency for the Iowa Department of Transportation’s Region 1. CIRTPA coordinates planning and programming efforts in the region and fosters new partnerships with state and local officials.
