Welcome to the Southeast Area Study Update

What is the Study?
A large transportation study, the Southeast Area Study (SEAS) Update, has recently begun in our region - across southeastern Raleigh and Wake County and central to western Johnston County. It's an update to the original study completed in 2017.
The SEAS Update will identify and prioritize short, mid, and long-term transportation improvements for the study area. Recommendations will include all modes of travel: bike, walk, rail, bus, cars. The study recommendations will feed into the Triangle region's long-range transportation plan, which is a key way we get state and federal dollars for transportation projects.

More Info on the SEAS Update
Previously, in 2017, the Capital Area MPO (CAMPO) completed the original Southeast Area Study. Designed to be a sustainable transportation strategy for the area, the original study evaluated land use, economic development, and multimodal (freight, highway, transit (bus/rail), bicycle, and pedestrian) issues in the southeastern section of CAMPO's planning area. This Update will involve extensive community engagement and an evaluation of transportation projects, policies, and priorities that may have evolved or shifted since 2017. The Update will also include a detailed implementation strategy that includes short-term and mid-term recommendations to further the vision of a multim-modal transportation network for the region.
CAMPO conducts area studies in order to achieve more robust community engagement and focus on specific network issues in smaller areas within its planning jurisdiction. Outcomes and recommendations from this SEAS Update will inform the region's long range transportation plan.
The current SEAS Update began in 2022 and is anticipated to be completed in 2023.

CAMPO Vision
A multi-modal transportation network that is compatible with our growth, sensitive to the environment, improves quality of life and is accessible to all.
What is CAMPO?
The N.C. Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) coordinates transportation planning in Wake County and portions of Franklin, Granville, Johnston, and Harnett Counties. Federal regulations require the MPO to coordinate transportation planning in all the areas that will be part of the "Raleigh urbanized area" within the next twenty-five years. CAMPO serves as the coordinating agency between local governments, the N.C. Dept. of Transportation (NCDOT), the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Staff has established a close working relationship wtih the plannig departments of municipalities within the MPO as well as with the planning staff of the neighboring Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro (DCHC) MPO, and Upper Coastal Plain Rural Planning Org (UCPRPO).
