The Arkansas State Highway Commission has released the Draft Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) for Federal Fiscal Years 2025-2028.

The public is invited to review and comment on the contents of the Draft STIP through July 22, 2024. The public may view and download the STIP here: www.ardot.gov/STIP.  Copies of the Draft STIP are also available by mail when requested through ARDOT’s Program Management Division at (501) 569-2262.

The STIP includes all regionally significant transportation projects to be undertaken in coordination with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). It is a federally required public document covering four years. The projects listed are the state’s overall highway and transit programs and encompass all areas of the state.

With respect to urban areas greater than 50,000 in population, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO) are including individual projects in their Transportation Improvement Programs.  For additional information on projects located within a MPO area, please contact the appropriate MPO.

This program is consistent with Arkansas’ long-range plan and includes roadway, bridge, safety, intersection improvement, and transit projects. This document is prepared in response to Title 23 United States Code, Section 135 – Statewide Planning Requirements.
