Regional Transportation Improvement Plan

,

Overview

The Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) is a document used by local governments throughout California to nominate transportation projects for funding under the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).

The RTIP covers a five-year programming period and includes projects involving highways, local roads, transit, and active transportation. CCOG is required to prepare and submit an updated RTIP to the California Transportation Commission every two years.

 

Project Selection for STIP Funding

CCOG reviews potential transportation projects within Calaveras County and identifies those that are eligible and best aligned with regional priorities for inclusion in the RTIP. Projects are considered based on factors such as regional significance, project readiness, funding eligibility, safety, mobility, and consistency with the Regional Transportation Plan.

Selected projects are then nominated for available STIP funding through the RTIP process and submitted to the California Transportation Commission for consideration.
