FY2025 Work Program

To ensure DVRPC’s website is up-to-date, accessible, and well organized. As the region's MPO, DVRPC, through our website, provides an immense amount of information and offers a wide variety of products, services, and tools.

This program focuses on enhancing DVRPC’s web presence by delivering and updating content on the DVRPC website (http://www.dvrpc.org), ensuring accessibility and responsiveness. Through the DVRPC website, the Commission provides access to data, products, and resources, including planning studies, traffic counts, aerial photography, and demographic forecasts. This program supports the development and maintenance of the systems necessary to provide planners and decision-makers with web access to critical data and resources. Additionally, it involves overseeing web product lifecycles, implementing quality control procedures, and supporting the development of databases to aid in administering Commission activities.
