HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
DISCUSSION ON STATE HIGHWAY AND COUNTY ROAD CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM PROJECTS

Notice is hereby given that the HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (HDOT) will be holding its first round of virtual public informational meetings to discuss and solicit comments on the DRAFT STATEWIDE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (STIP) for FEDERAL FISCAL YEARS 2025 – 2028 (+2). We encourage participation in these meetings, as comments received will help to guide the finalization of the STIP.
The STIP is a four-year programming implementation document that identifies STATE and COUNTY transportation projects, statewide, to be funded, in part, with Federal Highway and Transit funds.
HDOT will be holding two rounds of virtual meetings via Microsoft Teams. The first round of meetings will share the STIP development process, discuss the fiscally unconstrained FFY 2025-2028 (+2) STIP, and solicit input. Comments and questions regarding the content of the first round of meetings will be accepted until Friday, June 28, 2024.
Once the STIP is prioritized and fiscally constrained, a second round of meetings will be held to share the proposed fiscally constrained FFY 2025-2028 (+2) STIP, that will be submitted to Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) for approval.
The virtual public informational meetings for Hawaii island are scheduled for Thursday, May 23, 2024 and Wednesday, May 29, 2024. Meetings start at 6:30 PM. The link to attend each meeting will be posted at the top of the STIP website (https://highways.hidot.hawaii.gov/stories/s/STIP-Home/63ng-czz7/) prior to the meeting.
