The Wyoming Department of Transportation District Four will be meeting with the City of Buffalo and the Johnson County Commission on Aug. 16, to present their annual State Transportation Improvement Plan. The presentation, like the one being held in Sheridan for city officials, will include information on local projects and discuss future project funding.
WYDOT is scheduled to present the STIP to the Johnson County Commission at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 15, in commission chambers and to City Council at 4 p.m. in council chambers. The public is encouraged to attend.
According to WYDOT Senior Public Relations Specialist for District Four, Laura Dalles, the STIP is a six-year program approved by the transportation commission. This plan provides a snapshot of existing and expected projects and their schedules, and is continually updated. The current STIP is for the years 2023-28 and represents the planned construction, preliminary engineering, and right of way costs of each project. The program also indicates the share of federal funding, state funding and other funding sources for each project. Dalles said that WYDOT has pledged to do its best to adhere to this program and to serve the public interest through these projects.
