The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) demonstrates transportation conformity of its Connections 2040 Long-Range Plan, Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 Pennsylvania Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

This conformity finding reflects all amendments to the Plan and TIPs through June 2016.
