Statewide Transportation Improvement Program

The Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is a three-year document that identifies those highway and transit projects that will use federal funding or for which federal approvals will be required. It is also the document that identifies the scheduling dates for transportation projects and programs. 

This document includes, by reference, the approved Transportation Improvement Programs for the Metropolitan Planning Areas (MPO). Additionally, it includes all federal funded highway projects located outside the MPO areas, Public Lands Discretionary Program, Forest Highway Program, park roads and parkways found within the federal parks of Virginia.

The Commonwealth Transportation Board changed its policy in 2005 and holds several public hearings statewide, which allows the public to participate in the development of the priorities for the Six-Year Improvement Program and the STIP.
