The North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority's Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) lists nearly $10 billion in state and federally funded capital transportation investments over the next four fiscal years. The investments include projects and programs to rebuild, improve and maintain the State's roadway and transit systems. To be eligible for federal funds, proposed projects must be approved by the NJTPA Board of Trustees for inclusion in the TIP which is updated annually.

This webpage provides access to documents that comprise the current TIP. Other documents available here relate to activities involved in updating and maintaining the TIP. Much of the project-related information in these documents is also available through NOTIS -- the NJTPA Online Transportation Information System -- which allows interactive searching for projects in particular locations or on particular routes, using maps and database queries.

The TIP is the final phase in a continuous, multi-phase project development and implementation process called the "Project Pipeline." The Project Pipeline includes three fundamental phases, as follows:

Project Identification - Carried out in the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), which establishes a long-range vision for improving transportation in the region.

Project Development and Prioritization - Carried out in the Project Development Work Program (PDWP), which evaluates the need for projects and develops alternative conceptual designs and routes. Projects are scored and ranked during development of the PDWP. When projects have passed through the PDWP, they are placed in the Project Pool, which includes projects eligible for inclusion in the TIP.

Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) - Projects are selected from the Project Pool for inclusion in the TIP. The TIP, which is updated every year, includes projects for which design, right-of-way purchase, and construction take place. The current TIP covers fiscal years (FYs) 2008 through 2011, and went into effect on October 1, 2007. The TIP was considered and adopted at Committee and Board meetings of the NJTPA on June 25 and July 9, 2007. The air quality impacts of the TIP are evaluated through a conformity determination.

The following tables provide access to documents that make up the TIP. The documents are in Portable Document Format (PDF). To view PDF files, you will need the Acrobat Reader that is available free from Adobe. (All PDF files will open in a separate window that you can close when you are finished.)

The TIP introduction provides a detailed explanation of the TIP and how it is compiled. The abbreviations and terms used in the TIP are referenced in the Glossary. The TIP also includes a number of appendices providing supplementary and background information. The table below provides access to these documents for the current and draft TIPs.
