The Technical Coordinating Committee is represented by staff and other participating agencies responsible for or affected by the implementation of transportation plans, products or improvements.  Their role is to assist and advise the policy board on technical matters as it relates to transportation process elements.

The TCC does not have the authority to adopt transportation products or plans.  Their role is to review products and plans, and analyze the technical aspects as it relates to costs, construction, design or other technical matters and make a recommendation for adoption or acceptance to the Executive Policy Committee.  The CAC and TCC play an important role in the review of transportation projects and plans.  With the involvement of these two committees a cooperative, continuing, and comprehensive transportation planning process would not occur.  It is their responsibility to make recommendations for approval, denial, or acceptance to the policy board regarding documents required of the Metropolitan Transportation Planning process.
