Welcome
The Jacksonville Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (JUMPO) is the regional transportation planning agency for the New River region of southeastern North Carolina. JUMPO is composed of officials from the City of Jacksonville, Onslow County, and area military installations as well as the North Carolina Board of Transportation. JUMPO facilitates a cooperative, comprehensive and continuing transportation planning process that serves as the basis for the expenditure of all federal transportation funds in the area for streets, highways, bridges, public transit, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
The Jacksonville Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (JUMPO) develops and implements a comprehensive multi-modal transportation plan that supports the existing and future mobility needs and economic vitality of the greater Jacksonville region. This is achieved through the long-range transportation planning process, which includes a comprehensive, continuous and cooperative approach partnering with citizens and participating members. This shall be accomplished by providing safe and efficient transportation options, protecting the environment, safeguarding social equity, and improving quality of life.
