Federal Regulations require State Departments of Transportation to develop a Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The STIP contains capital and non-capital transportation projects and programs proposed for funding under Title 23 (highways) and Title 49 (transit) of the U.S. Code as well as all regionally significant transportation projects requiring an action by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or the Federal Transit Administration (FTA).

Please see the attachments for notice of application for signalized railroad crossing at County Road 15 and at County Road 17. Morgan County has also been notified of signals to be installed at County Road 14.

The agencies housed in the current Justice Center are operating at full capacity and have no room to expand although growth within the county and the associated activity of these agencies continues to increase.
