The Nevada Department of Transportation wants the public to comment on future transportation projects.

The Statewide Transportation Improvement Program is a fiscally constrained, four-year planning document containing federal and state-funded transportation projects, as well as regionally significant transportation improvements funded through local and/or state dollars in accordance with the Federal Aid Highway Act and the Federal Transit Act.  These projects include increasing the number of lanes, constructing new roads and intersection improvements along with certain road maintenance projects. It also includes transit, rail, pedestrian walkway and bicycle facility projects.

Public meetings will also give the public an opportunity to provide feedback.

The public can comment on the draft list of projects by going online. Comments are due Aug. 31 by emailing jspencer@dot.nv.gov.
