The Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) provides a forum for public officials, citizens, and other interested groups to establish policies and plans for effectively addressing various metropolitan transportation issues. The MPO is comprised of five jurisdictions including: Bismarck, Lincoln, Mandan, and portions of Burleigh and Morton counties. The Bismarck-Mandan MPO is one of three MPOs in

the state of North Dakota. In addition to transportation planning efforts, the MPO must also develop and regularly update a Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP), a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), and a Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP). The MPO receives direction from the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and the Policy Board. The TAC is comprised primarily of planning and engineering staff members from the MPO's member jurisdictions. The TAC provides recommendations based on professional judgment for the MPO's Policy Board. The Policy Board is a five member board comprised of the mayors of Bismarck, Lincoln, and Mandan, as well as a commissioner from Burleigh and Morton Counties. The Policy Board is the decision making body of the MPO.

Do you own an E-bike or have a child who rides one? The Bismarck Police Department invites you to attend one of our upcoming FREE E-bike Safety Check events!

Bring your E-bike to either location and our officers will help ensure it meets safety standards and is legal to operate. Whether the bike is for you or your child, this is a great opportunity to learn about safe riding practices, where E-bikes can legally be ridden, and the responsibilities that come with being an E-bike rider.

As E-bikes continue to grow in popularity, we want to help keep our community safe through education and awareness. Stop by, ask questions, and make sure you're ready for a safe riding season!

We look forward to seeing you there!
