The Paducah-McCracken Metropolitan Planning Organization (PMcMPO) is a transportation policy-making board that will oversee transportation planning in the urban area including McCracken County, Paducah, Brookport, and the Ledbetter community in Livingston County. Through a continuous, comprehensive, and cooperative planning process, PMcMPO will give affected citizens and organizations an avenue to participate in decision-making so that their local transportation needs are reflected in regional priorities.
PMcMPO is inviting public review and comment on its draft 2024-2028 Community Participation Plan. The purpose of this plan is to provide meaningful opportunities and invite a diverse community of stakeholders to be involved in all aspects of the urban transportation planning process.

About the PMcMPO
In 2023, the Paducah-McCracken Metropolitan Planning Organization (PMcMPO) was designated by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet; the Illinois Department of Transportation; the City of Paducah; the City of Brookport, Illinois; McCracken County; and Livingston County, Kentucky. This is a significant achievement for Western Kentucky and Southern Illinois as it has the potential to unlock federal grants that will provide resources for planning as well as the improvement of the safety and efficiency of our local road system.
The Purchase Area Development District provides staff support for the PMcMPO with Paducah Mayor George Bray and Paducah City Manager Daron Jordan serving on the MPO’s executive board. Mayor Bray is the executive board’s chairman.
