What is PPUATS?

PPUATS, or the Peoria-Pekin Urbanized Transportation Study, consists of two groups of transportation professionals. These groups meet once per month to discussion transportation issues on a regional level. 

The PPUATS Technical Committee

This committee is made up of individuals appointed by their respective PPUATS communities. Most of the individuals are public works and/or engineering staff. Throughout the year the Technical Committee reviews and recommends planning policies and measures to the PPUATS Policy Committee. PPUATS Technical meets the third Wednesday of each month at 9:00 a.m.
