Municipal Maintenance Agreement
The Municipal Maintenance Agreement (MMA) establishes the
responsibilities of TxDOT and a city within that city’s incorporated
area. The MMA addresses numerous traffic issues, including, but
not limited to:
- traffic signals,
- lighting,
- traffic regulations,
- speed limits,
- traffic signs (regulatory, warning, and guide),
- pavement markings (yield, stop bars, and cross walks) and parking stalls,
- school safety devices (school speed limit when flashing signs), and
- parking laws and enforcement.
The MMA includes the maintenance of many parts of the highway
system within a municipality. Not all cities elect to enter into
an MMA.
If a city wants to install red light cameras, an amendment
must be added to the MMA.

Division or see the
