Transportation Improvement Program

The WILMAPCO Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) serves as a 4-year transportation planning document. For all planned capital transportation investments, the TIP lists project descriptions, scopes, justification and anticipated schedules for the next four years. The document is separated into Delaware Statewide, New Castle County and Cecil County specific projects. Within each of the County breakouts, the projects are sorted by the type of investment:

• System Preservation – Bridge Repair, Pavement Rehabilitation, Equipment, etc
• System Management – Intersection Improvements, Safety Improvements, Aesthetic/Streetscape Improvements, etc
• System Expansion – Major Roadway Widening, New Road Construction

There are many times throughout the yearly development of the TIP where members of the public can play an active role in determining the where’s, what’s and how much of the following year’s spending plan. For more details on participating in the annual TIP development process, see our schedule. Currently, WILMAPCO is in the process of developing our TIP prioritization  for the FY 2014-17 TIP.
