State Participation 2125 (SP2125)

The State Participation 2125 (SP2125) Program assists political subdivisions by alleviating financial hardships caused by required utility relocations on TxDOT's transportation projects. In 2019, the 86th Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 1512, which amended Texas Transportation Code Section 203.092 to add subsection (a-4) and created the State Participation Program administered by the Texas Transportation Commission, the governing body of TxDOT. In February 2020, the Texas Transportation Commission approved administrative rules that govern the State Participation 2125 Program. Texas Administrative Code Title 43, Part 1, Chapter 21, Subchapter B, Rule §21.25, “State Participation in the Relocation of Certain Publicly-Owned Utility Facilities” prescribes the procedures to be taken by the utility to apply for state participation in the relocation of utility facilities and by the department and commission in determining whether all or part of the expense of the relocation of the facility will be reimbursed by the state. Applications may be submitted to the local TxDOT District.
