How does the MTP lead to projects getting built?
Cities, counties, transit districts and Caltrans build projects. The MTP provides a long-range plan for the Sacramento region’s transportation. SACOG receives state and federal transportation funds and assigns them to specific projects (programming) two to four years into the future. Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs) are redone every three years, and sometimes in between, if new funding becomes available. For construction to begin on a project receiving federal or state funds, it must first be included in the MTP and then the TIPs. The early year MTP projects will be included in a MTIP amendment that will be adopted (anticipated) in early 2008. Projects will not change significantly until the anticipated air quality State Implementation Plan (SIP) is approved in the fall of 2008, and the MTIP 2009/12 can be amended and updated.
