The Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission has approved the Fiscal Year 2022-2026 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The program includes transportation projects from July 1st, 2021 through June 30th, 2026. MoDOT Northeast District Assistant Engineer Kevin James explains the process of drafting the STIP.

James adds the planning just on the regional level for the STIP is significant.

The public comment period for the annual STIP ran through the month of May. The latest program details an annual construction program that averages 1.1-billion dollars per year for the first five-year period. For information on the STIP visit the MoDOT website at modot.org
