HAMPO Transportation Studies

HAMPO conducts studies in order to gain a detailed and comprehensive understanding of existing or perceived transportation issues. The goals of these studies are to develop strategies and recommendations that can move the potential projects toward implementation using federal, state, and local transportation dollars.

Transit Development Plans

Liberty Transit Transit Development Plan: Transit agencies evaluate their Transit Development Plans (TDP) every five years as a prerequisite for the receipt of federal and state funding. The TDP update process provides transit agencies with the opportunity to define public transportation needs, solicit input from stakeholders and the public, identify capital and operational deficiencies, and define courses of action to advance the mission and goals of the transit agency.

On June 20, 2024, the Hinesville City Council adopted the Liberty Transit 2024 TDP:

HAMPO Safety Action Plan

On April 10, 2025, the HAMPO Policy Committee adopted the SS4A-funded Safety Action Plan. This plan was developed with the intent of creating implementation strategies to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries. Upon completion and adoption of a Safety Action Plan, the prioritized list of projects will be eligible for funding from a variety of sources, including Implementation Grants through the Safe Streets for All (SS4A) grant program from the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The adopted plan, along with the signed resolution and related appendices, can be found below.
