The draft TIP is subject to review by TRPC and PSRC (for projects that include secured or anticipated PSRC Earned Share formula funds), for inclusion in the respective regional TIP (RTIP). Federally funded projects must be included in the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) prior to funding being available.
