On May 19, 2010 FMATS approved its Public Participation Plan. The purpose of this revision was to ensure that FMATS meets the requirements of SAFETEA-LU (Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act, A Legacy for Users), the current Surface Transportation Bill. One of the requirements is that government spending on transportation becomes more transparent to State and Local Officials, as well as the public.

The Plan defines a process for providing citizens, affected public agencies, representatives of public transportation employees, freight shippers and transportation services, representatives of users of pedestrian walkways and bicycle transportation facilities, representatives of the disabled and other interested parties with meaningful and measurable opportunities to be involved in the transportation planning process.
