Last chance to give us your thoughts on the draft 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The public comment period ends this Sunday, Oct. 2.
The TIP lists transportation projects and programs to be built or implemented during the upcoming four years. All projects receiving federal funds are required to be included in the TIP. It is updated with new projects annually and includes project names and descriptions, jurisdictions sponsoring them, funding attached to each project, and where the funding came from (local, state or federal). The 2017-2020 TIP contains:
- One hundred and twenty projects, with 24 projects new to the TIP this year (a table of the new projects is below);
- A total of $563.4 million in local transportation investments to be spent between 2017 and 2020.
The 2017-2020 TIP can be viewed at https://www.srtc.org/tip.html. There is also an interactive map at that page that shows how the projects are distributed throughout Spokane County.
Comments can be emailed to contact.srtc@srtc.org, mailed to SRTC at the address below, or phoned in to (509) 343-6370.
