WVDOT to host virtual public workshop to discuss long-range Statewide Transportation Improvement Program on Friday, June 17, 2022

The West Virginia Department of Transportation is hosting a virtual public workshop on Friday, June 17, 2022, from 5:00pm to 7:00pm, for the public to review information on future funding levels and provide input on the potential program categories and funding levels for the upcoming 6-year period. The workshop will provide a venue for the public to ask questions and discuss the program with the project team. The input will be used to help formulate a draft Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) document that will be available for review and comment at a later date. Please visit the STIP website at any time during the workshop to access the virtual meeting at https://transportation.wv.gov/highways/Programming/STIP/Pages/default.aspx.

The WVDOT is seeking input to help guide the future of transportation in West Virginia. WVDOT is in the process of developing its new 6-year STIP. The 2023-2028 STIP identifies project investments over a 6-year period to fund the operation, preservation, rehabilitation, and expansion of West Virginia’s highway and transit assets statewide with the revenue that is estimated to be available.

Each time the STIP is updated, the public is given the opportunity to participate in the transportation planning process. The public is encouraged to provide comments on the STIP through July 1, 2022. Comments and questions can be submitted electronically via DOTSTIP@wv.gov or by mail to:
