Apply for Local Project Delivery Funding from the Transportation Improvement Program

You can apply for funding for a project on a road or bridge owned/operated by a local government with state and/or federal money through the state Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

Overview

In conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), PennDOT developed Publication 740, the Local Project Delivery Manual (PDF), which provides assistance to local project sponsors, project managers, and interested stakeholders in successfully delivering locally sponsored transportation projects. 

Publication 740 does not specifically address the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), but many of the same processes will apply.
