Purpose:

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will be conducting a virtual public meeting for the proposed 2021-2024 Rural Transportation Improvement Program (Rural TIP) for the Beaumont TxDOT District. The purpose of the virtual public meeting is to gather public input on the initial adoption of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021-2024 Rural Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). Comments must be received on or before Friday, May 29, 2020, to be part of the virtual public meeting record.  

Description:

This virtual meeting format (no in-person meeting) includes a pre-recorded video presentation and comment opportunity. The Rural TIP includes all regionally significant projects to be funded within a TxDOT District during the next four years, including those eligible for federal funding.  As such, these meetings offer the public an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed priorities. A project in the Rural TIP is a project coming to your community.  The Rural TIP is the first step on the road to producing a Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).

Pursuant to Title 43 Texas Administrative Code, Section 16.102, this meeting is being held to receive comments on the 2021-2024 Rural TIP for the Beaumont TxDOT District. The Beaumont Rural TIP includes Tyler, Jasper, and Newton counties. The Rural TIP includes all regionally significant projects to be funded with FHWA/FTA, state or local funds in rural areas (outside the MPO area) during the next four years, including those eligible for federal funding. As such, these meetings offer the public an opportunity to review and comment on the proposed priorities. A project in the Rural TIP is a project coming to your community. The Rural TIP is the first step on the road to producing a Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).
