Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
The TIP is the regionally agreed upon list of priority transportation projects, as required by federal law (ISTEA, TEA-21, SAFETEA LU). The TIP document must list all projects that intend to use federal funds, along with all non-federally funded projects that are regionally significant. We also include all other State funded capital projects. The projects are multi-modal; that is, they include bicycle, pedestrian, ITS, and freight related projects, as well as the more traditional highway and public transit projects.
For an overview of the TIP, how it was developed, and how you can become involved, see the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Handbook.
Draft PA TIP for Public Comment
DVRPC invites the public to review and comment on the Draft FY 2013 TIP for the PA portion of the region through June 1, 2012. This TIP was developed in cooperation with PennDOT, SEPTA, DRPA/PATCO, and DVRPC's member cities and counties. Concurrently with release of the Draft TIP, DVRPC also is seeking public comment on an Amendment to the Connections 2035 long range plan and the Draft Transportation Conformity Finding (see the Public Notice). The Draft TIP, along with the public comments and agency responses, will be presented to the DVRPC Board for adoption on June 28, 2012. Once approved by PennDOT, FHWA and FTA, it will become effective on October 1, 2012.
