The FY 2026-2030 TIP is a comprehensive list of planned and federally funded multi-modal transportation projects programmed for the Indiana Department of Transportation, Monroe County, Rural Transit, Bloomington Transit, and the City of Bloomington. Development of the new TIP requires public involvement, including public review by the BMCMPO Citizens Advisory Committee, the Technical Advisory Committee, and adoption by the Policy Committee before submission to state and federal agencies for final approval. Meeting attendees will help shape the project investment priorities for the next five years by providing feedback on the proposed list of TIP projects. The Draft FY 2026-2030 Transportation Improvement Program is available for public review between November 10, 2024 and December 9, 2024:
