About Us
Mission: 

Our mission is to help direct the use of state and federal transportation and economic development funds allocated to the region—approximately $35 billion through 2045. We work closely with counties, cities, municipalities, and townships access this funding and support them with their planning needs.

Programs: 

Our organization strives to plan new transportation solutions, build a competitive economy, and manage water resources to create a world-class infrastructure filled with healthy, liveable communities.

The Corporation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, accounts for all funds, enters into contracts, and employs a staff to support the Commission’s work.  Our operations are funded through a combination of federal and state planning grants, SPC member contributions, in-kind service contributions, and grants from private foundations to support various transportation planning and economic development projects. Resources are applied to the core functions including SPC’s daily administrative operations and agency Work Programs.
