| Purpose | To receive public comments on the proposed May 2026 Revision to the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) for FY 2025 - 2028. |
| Description | The STIP identifies federally funded transportation projects included in the FY 2025–2028 Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) for each Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in Texas. It also includes state and federally funded projects in nonattainment areas—Dallas-Fort Worth, El Paso, Houston, and San Antonio—as well as federally funded projects in rural areas outside MPO boundaries and other statewide programs. Federal law (Title 23 USC §§134 and 135) requires MPOs and states to develop TIPs and STIPs to secure federal transportation funding. These plans must be developed in cooperation with MPOs, transit operators, and local officials, and must include opportunities for public participation and approval by the Governor or designee. A copy of the proposed May 2026 Revision to the FY 2025–2028 STIP will be available for review when this notice is published on TxDOT's website. |
