DDOT Schedules Public Forum on FY26–FY29 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program

The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) posted a public meeting notice announcing a forum on the FY26–FY29 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The notice, published on DDOT’s website, invites District residents and stakeholders to review proposed capital projects and provide input ahead of the STIP’s finalization for the FY26–FY29 program years.

The STIP lays out projects across highways, transit, and multimodal street improvements that are anticipated to receive federal funding and requires coordination with regional planning partners. DDOT’s notice frames the forum as part of the agency’s public outreach under federal planning rules, giving community members a chance to ask questions, flag local priorities, and raise concerns about schedules and funding assumptions.

DDOT’s public forum feeds into a formal comment period and the agency’s process for refining project lists and timelines before submission to federal partners. The meeting notice is posted on the agency’s official site and includes instructions for how residents can view proposed projects and participate in the public-engagement process.

The STIP determines which projects are eligible for federal funding and sets delivery priorities that affect neighborhood streets, transit service, and how federal dollars flow to the District.
