TIP/MTP Amendment

The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is the mechanism by which federal, state and local funds are approved for all significant surface transportation projects and programs in the region. The FY 2024-2027 TIP comprises the first four years of the 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) for the Atlanta region, both of which are adopted in February 2024. As the federally recognized Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for a 20-county region, ARC is responsible for developing and amending/updating the TIP and MTP to meet federal planning requirements and address local needs.

Currently, staff are compiling changes to be considered for Amendment #1 to the FY 2024-2027 TIP and 2050 MTP.

Amendment 1 Purpose

  1. To incorporate new projects from the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) bridge maintenance program
  2. To accommodate financial changes to the GDOT Major Mobility Investment Program (MMIP)
  3. To implement miscellaneous project financial changes which impact fiscal constraint in order to prepare for closing out fiscal year 2024

All amendments require a conformity determination from the US DOT, in consultation with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This amendment is expected to receive an updated conformity determination by the US DOT and US EPA by late May 2024. The most recent conformity determination was issued by US DOT and US EPA on Feburary 27, 2024.
