HOW FEDERAL TRANSPORTATION DOLLARS ARE SPENT IN TOMPKINS COUNTY

The Ithaca-Tompkins County Transportation Council (ITCTC) is pleased to announce the availability of the federal fiscal year (FFY) 2011 - 2012 List of Obligated Projects. The ITCTC maintains an five-year program (list) of transportation projects that are scheduled to use federal funding. This five-year program is called the Transportation Improvement Program. All federally funded projects are required to be on the TIP in order to be eligible for funding.

• Annual Obligation Report
• FHWA (Highway) Project Obligation Tables (FFY: 10/1/11 - 9/30/12)
• FTA (Transit) Tables (FFY: 10/1/11 - 9/30/12)

To ensure that the public has an accurate understanding of how federal funds are being spent on transportation projects, Congress, in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (1998) and continuing in the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU, 2005), included a requirement that the organizations responsible for approving the Transportation Improvement Program, publish an annual listing of project obligations.
