New Projects Added To Transportation Improvement Program

We've just completed development of the 2015-2018 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and are looking for feedback on it. The TIP is a funding document that lists federally and/or regionally significant transportation improvements proposed to be constructed or undertaken during the upcoming four years. The big change to it each year (besides the date on the cover) is that we add new projects annually.

To see what projects are on the books through 2018, go to http://www.srtc.org/tip.html. Then give us your opinion on whether these are the right places to spend money. You can either do that by attending a public meeting Wednesday, September 24 from 4-6 p.m. at 221 W. 1st Ave., Suite 310 or you can email them to contact.srtc@srtc.org, mail to SRTC at the address above, or phone them in to (509) 343-6370.
