Lindsay Smart, LPA Staff
Narrative
The amendment #3 to the DCHC MPO's FY2016-2025 TIP cancels projects, amends projects, and adds new projects to the DCHC MPO TIP. A summary report of the changes included in amendment #3 is included as an attachment to this agenda item. A full amendment report that depicts the original and proposed version of each project is also included as an attachment to this agenda item. This amendment serves to align the DCHC MPO TIP with the changes that have been made to the NCDOT STIP through monthly "Item N Highway Program" and "Item I Public Transportation Program" for the dates between February 1, 2016 and May 31, 2016. The amendment #3 also includes project amendment requests that the DCHC MPO LPA staff have received from DCHC MPO member jurisdictions and agencies.
Additionally, while draft amendment #3 was out for public review and comment, DCHC MPO LPA staff received updates on locally managed projects from MPO members. Several projects that were already included in amendment #3 were further modified to reflect the updated information received by the MPO LPA. The full amendment report is also available through the MPO's online database, using this link: bitly.com/tipamendments. Select amendment 3 from the drop-down menu to review the full report.
Many of the NCDOT-requested project amendments have already been reflected in the STIP. The MPO received comments MPO member jurisdictions and those comments are reflected in the attached amendment #3. The MPO did not receive any additional comments from the public on the amendment.
