"With
maintenance and modernization of our transportation system always on our
minds, IDOT is proactively planning for the next multi-modal transportation
program to be announced in Spring of 2013," said Secretary Schneider.
"Public input is a vital and extremely beneficial component of our new
multi-modal focus. Our hope is that the citizens of Illinois will participate
in our outreach to make sure that our transportation system is serving them
the best way possible."
The proposed Multi-Year Program (MYP) is based on current estimates of local,
federal and state funding, including funding from Governor Pat Quinn's
Illinois Jobs Now! capital program, enacted in 2009. The MYP for the current
FY 2013-2018 totals about $9.2 billion and focuses on maintenance and
improvement of the existing state road system.
The public meetings will be conducted informally, with no formal presentation
planned. IDOT staff will be present to answer any questions related to the
multi-modal program, planning and project development process. The public
will have an opportunity to comment on the development of the proposed MYP,
existing programming procedures and other information.
Also, the IDOT will present the latest draft of its Long-Range State
Transportation Plan that it began updating earlier this year. The plan is
required by both federal and state regulations and will be completed by
December 31, 2012. The plan encompasses all modes of transportation and
provides a framework for the department to address current and future needs.
At the open houses, the public will have the opportunity to view exhibit
boards and talk one-on-one with representatives from those involved directly
with the plan about new initiatives, revised policies and goals being
developed for the plan update. For residents, visitors, and visitors unable
to attend the open house, visit www.IllinoisTransportationPlan.org for an
opportunity to utilize the comment page on the website.
