The Michigan Department of Transportation is inviting public comment on their draft State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). STIP is a federally required planning document listing the road, bridge, and transit projects located in rural areas that the state plans to fund with federal aid. It includes a compilation of transportation projects that will be authorized for federal and state funding for the 2020-2023 fiscal years, as well as information regarding the transportation planning process. Public involvement activities and a financial plan that compares annual resources to new commitments are also included in the STIP.
The 2020-2023 STIP is available online through August 15 at www.Michigan.gov/STIP. Public comments will be summarized in the final STIP that will be submitted to the Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration for review and approval.
Michigan’s transportation programs are primarily funded with federal funds provided under multi-year federal authorization acts. Federal surface transportation funds are generated from federal motor fuel taxes and certain excise taxes and are distributed to states by formula. The 2020-2023 STIP includes $5.4 billion for roads and bridges, and $1.7 billion for transit.
