The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a federal obligation document which describes the planned schedule in the next four years for distributing federal, state and local funds for state and local transportation projects. The TIP represents an agency’s intent to construct or implement specific projects in the short term and identifies the anticipated flow of federal funds and matching state or local contributions. It is a list of projects and programs that includes roadway, transit, and bicycle and pedestrian improvements as well as operational and maintenance programs.
The TPB approved the FY 2026–2029 TIP on December 17, 2025, via Resolution R4-2026. It includes over 300 projects and programs with more than $17 billion in funding from federal, state, local, private, and other sources. Read More.
The TIP is a dynamic programming document, the primary purpose of which is to show the planned obligation of federal funding from the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration on regional transportation projects and programs. It is typically amended and modified several times each month by the TPB member implementing agencies. Details on how the TIP is amended or modified can be found in the TPB's Amendment and Administrative Modification Procedures which is also included in the FY 2026-2029 TIP as Appendix B.
The public has the opportunity to comment on monthly amendments to the TIP by reviewing any resolutions posted for review on the TPB Steering Committee meeting pages and submitting comments using the TPB comment form before 12:00 P.M. (noon) the day prior to the next TPB meeting. Additional information on comment periods for large-scale amendments will be posted on this webpage as necessary.
