CAMPO Comment Period: Draft 2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program

The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) is developing the four-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The 2017-2020 TIP will be used to allocate limited funding resources to best meet the various transportation needs of CAMPO’s six- county region.

 

Attend an open house and provide your comments on the draft 2017-2020 TIP. All open houses are a come-and-go format, there will be no formal presentation.

 

Monday, June 13 4 – 7 p.m. San Marcos Activity Center 501 E. Hopkins St., San Marcos, 78666
Tuesday, June 14 1 – 4 p.m. Austin City Hall Atrium 301 W. 2nd St.,

Wednesday, June 15 4 -7 p.m. Georgetown Historic Light and Waterworks Building 406 W. 8th St.,

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is CAMPO’s planning document that details transportation improvement projects to begin construction or implementation in a four- year window.

 

Regional agencies such as TxDOT, Capital Metro, and the Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS), as well as local governments, examine their anticipated projects for the four-year TIP cycle then submit those projects to CAMPO for inclusion in the TIP. Before a project can be listed in the TIP, it must be included in the long-range plan and funding must be available.

 

In accordance with federal regulations, all transportation

projects that use federal funding or are regionally significant must be included in the TIP before construction can begin.

 

The TIP is a multi-modal program that includes road, transit, bike, and pedestrian projects. The TIP can also include operational improvements, which are projects like electronic signs that alert motorists to lane closures, crashes and travel times.
