How often is the TIP updated?

The TIP spans a four-year period and must be updated at least every two years. After public review and comment, the TIP is approved by the Regional Council’s Transportation Policy and Executive Boards before being submitted for further approvals to the Governor and ultimately the U.S. Department of Transportation.

In our region, a new TIP is created every two years, following the project selection process for the federal funds awarded through the Regional Council. Each TIP then goes through a major update once a year, as well as accepting minor amendments on a monthly basis. These amendments are described in greater detail here.
