The City of St. Louis has partnered with CMT to develop its first Citywide Transportation and Mobility Plan (TMP) in more than 75 years. It sets a bold, long-term vision for how people move and how communities thrive, guiding investments and decisions over the next 10 to 25 years.

Developed through robust public engagement and a statistically valid survey, the TMP reflects the lived experiences and values of St. Louis residents, prioritizing safety, connectivity, and maintenance across all modes of transportation. One of the plan’s most innovative components is the Street Design Framework, which reimagines how streets function – not just as conduits for cars, but as public spaces that support walking, biking, transit, and accessibility. The framework categorizes every street based on its surrounding context and outlines how each should be designed to serve people first.

Safety is a foundational pillar of the TMP, which introduces a data-driven Safety Action Plan designed to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries by 50% by 2050 through targeted countermeasures and annual progress tracking. Implementation is addressed through a strategic roadmap that links vision to action. The TMP outlines steps for project delivery, funding alignment, and performance tracking. It fosters transparency and collaboration, acknowledging that success stems from the shared commitment of city staff, elected officials, residents, and partner organizations. Public dashboards and equity-centered design have garnered regional recognition, serving as a model for peer cities.

The TMP was adopted into the City’s Comprehensive Plan in late 2025.
