AI Summary

This bill requires the Tennessee Department of Transportation to allocate federal and state funds for transportation planning and implementation equally between rural planning organizations (RPOs), which are established for nonmetropolitan areas, and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), which serve urbanized areas. This ensures that funding for transportation initiatives in rural parts of the state is on par with that for more populated urban areas, with the changes taking effect for funds applied for or accepted on or after July 1, 2026, or July 1, 2027, respectively.
