I have heard the Transportation Program Manager manages the Town’s transportation budget. Is this true?

No. The Transportation Program Manager only manages an annual work program budget for regional planning work. The Transportation Program Manager also manages coordination with the state and federal government when a capital project is slated to receive state or federal aid funding support.
