The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a short-range (3-5 year) capital improvement program (budget) of transportation projects consistent with federal regulations and area policies and strategies. The TIP lists all projects for which federal funds are anticipated, along with non-federally funded projects that are regionally significant. The TIP represents the transportation improvement priorities of the region and is required by federal law. The list includes roadway and public transit projects. For more information contact: Toni Tisdale, 855-2558, ext 228.
COMPASS produces a TIP for both the Northern Ada County and Nampa Urbanized Area and updates the document annually. The list of TIP projects must be endorsed by the COMPASS Board. The Department of Transportation requires that all projects in the TIP be derived from an approved long range transportation plan, meet air quality requirements and be financially constrained to the amount of funds that are expected to be available. The TIP shows the estimated costs and projected construction schedule of transportation projects. The TIP brochure describes in more detail how the TIP is developed.

The format of reporting changed from last year. COMPASS must show project costs in the year of expenditure (adjusted for inflation). In the document, both the cost in current dollar amounts (not adjusted for inflation) and the year of expenditure are shown for convenience. The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) requested that projects be grouped as much as possible. Therefore, you will see total summaries for those projects that can be grouped. More complex projects are shown individually in the back of the report. The final version may be adjusted to more closely match ITD project listing, as details are still under discussion. This project listing is identified as “New Format.” The previous report forms are also available, although shown only in current dollar amounts. These reports are identified as “Previous Format.”
