The State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is a list of projects that the state proposes to fund with federal aid in the fiscal years 2008-2011.
What's included?

• Road, bridge and transit projects located exclusively in rural areas
• The transportation planning processes
• MDOT's transportation goals
• The public involvement process
• A financial plan that compares annual resources to new commitments.

• Projects in larger metropolitan areas. Those projects are listed in the Transportation Improvement Plans (TIPs) prepared by local Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs).
• Some smaller safety and heavy maintenance projects. These projects will be selected later this year after further analysis of highway conditions.
• Local projects on federal-aid-eligible roads selected through the Rural Task Force or Small Urban Program project selection process. These projects are grouped as a single line item in the STIP rather than being listed individually.
