The FHWA shall have a representative as an ex-officio members of the committee. The Policy Committee reviews and approves the overall work program and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The Policy Committee also makes policy determinations concerning the long- and short-range elements of transportation planning.

Much of the coordination of the program and the discussion related to transportation issues takes place within the Policy Committee.
