NIRPC to hold public comment period on Amendment #22-10 of FY 2022-2026 Transportation Improvement Program
The Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission (NIRPC) will hold a 21-day public comment period on an amendment to the 2022-2026 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The comment period begins June 13 and will end on July 04, 2023. Amendment #22–10 contains three new projects for INDOT, and the county of La Porte. Substantial funds were added to a project in Schererville and a project is being eliminated in the City of La Porte.
NIRPC’s TIP is a short-range financial and spending plan for the utilization of federal transportation funding and for regionally significant projects. These federal funds can be used for highway, transit, and non-motorized transportation projects. NIRPC’s TIP includes projects undertaken by municipalities, counties, transit operators, and the State of Indiana. Federal planning regulations guide the preparation and development of the TIP documents.
