OTO Regional Project Priorities
Public Input: FY 2026-2029 Transportation Improvement Program
The FY 2026-2029 Transportation Improvement Program is currently being developed. The Transportation Improvement Program is a listing of projects proposed for federal, state, and local funding over the next four years for the OTO area which includes seven cities and two counties. Funding is proposed for aviation, bicycle and pedestrian, roadway and transit projects. We are asking citizens to provide the OTO with comments and concerns about needed transportation projects in the next four years, July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2029. The input will be shared with our member communities and our Board of Directors, documenting the transportation needs in the Springfield Metropolitan area.
