The award-winning Merrimack Valley TMA was founded as the River Road Transportation Management Association (RRTMA). The TMA is a non-profit organization of employers and property owners who are working together to address employee transportation issues in the Merrimack Valley area of Andover and along the I-93 and I-495 corridors.

The River Road area and the neighboring communities of Haverhill, Lawrence, Methuen, and North Andover have seen an unprecedented amount of development over the past few years. This has resulted in a significant amount of traffic. The TMA was formed in 1997 to serve employers in the upper Merrimack Valley area by addressing issues such as: traffic congestion as well as road and bridge construction. As traffic in the region continued to increase, the River Road TMA expanded to address related region-wide traffic issues in the communities of Lawrence, Methuen, and North Andover and in 2010, the TMA expanded its service area to include Haverhill. Recognized by the Merrimack Valley Chamber of Commerce in 2010 as a small business providing outstanding service to its members and the community. The TMA has enhanced its role to serve as a resource for employers to comply with the Massachusetts Rideshare regulation, advocate for commuter-oriented and sustainability legislation, and serve as a forum for the exchange of information and ideas that impact economic development in the greater Andover region.

In June 2010, the Merrimack Valley TMA Board of Directors voted unanimously to expand the MV TMA service area into Haverhill, MA. The expansion came about due to inquiries from Haverhill’s businesses wanting to participate and take advantage of the multiple MV TMA alternative transportation programs.
