The Alamo Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) has
issued an agency call for Surface Transportation Program – Metropolitan
Mobility (STP-MM) funded projects for the development of the FY 2017-2020
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). It is anticipated the Call for Projects
will have approximately $100 Million in available funding to program.
The funding used for this call for projects is a reimbursable
federal funding program and all applicable federal rules apply to the use of
these funds, which includes a minimum of a 20% match from local funds.
Local governmental agencies are able to submit projects for
consideration and evaluation as part of this call.
The TIP covers a four-year window of time, and lists all
federally funded transportation projects within the area. Projects included in
the TIP are scheduled to be let to construction in the fiscal year they are
shown. To be included in the TIP, the Transportation Policy Board of the MPO
must approve the projects.
Please save the date! As part of the Call for Project process, the MPO will be
hosting two workshops on July 29, 2015 for agency staff interested in learning
more about the submission process, forms, and requirements associated with the
use of federal funds for transportation projects. The workshops will be identical in information presented. The first workshop will start at 9:30 AM. The second workshop will start at 1:30 PM. Both workshops will be held at the MPO Offices at 825 S. St. Mary's Street, San Antonio, Texas 78205.
