The Draft Amended FY2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program is Now Available

The Knoxville TPO wants your feedback on the amended FY2017-2020 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)!

The amendment will add over 30 new transportation projects and studies as well as update existing projects consistent with the Mobility Plan 2040, the Knoxville Region’s Long Range Transportation Plan.

Both the Mobility Plan 2040 and the TIP guide transportation investments in our region. The Mobility Plan 2040 lays out a vision of what the transportation system will look like in the future. It includes all of the transportation projects that will be funded and scheduled over the next 20+ years. The TIP is a shorter-range plan which includes all of the transportation projects that will be funded, designed, and built over the next four years. The FY2017-2020 TIP prioritizes roughly $549 million for improvements to roadways, bridges, transit systems, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
