D. PROJECT SELECTION PROCESS
Mobility projects are selected for inclusion in the TIP by advancing projects from
the long range plan in accordance with identified needs and available funding
taking into account the implementation priorities expressed by local public
officials and citizens' groups as well as the priorities of the MPO and TxDOT.
Projects are emphasized which relieve existing system congestion, provide
appropriate access to the transportation system, or ensure continuity of regional
and national transportation systems through the metropolitan area.
Rehabilitation, maintenance, and safety projects are selected for inclusion in the
TIP by identifying needs through management systems and taking into account
the implementation priorities expressed by local public officials and citizens'
groups as well as the priorities of the MPO and TxDOT. Projects are emphasized
which preserve the existing system, improve the serviceability and safety of the
transportation system, or minimize intermodal conflicts.
Projects are listed in the TIP according to priority and funding availability. Those
projects with the highest priority are placed in the earliest year in which they
may be implemented. Thus, the projects in the closest year, FY 96, are the
projects with available funding and the highest priority. The TIP is updated
annually and projects are normally advanced according to the year in which they
were first placed with new projects normally added in the third year of the TIP.
TxDOT, in cooperation with the MPO, selects projects for implementation from
the approved TIP for the Abilene Metropolitan Area. If any project in the first
year, FY 96, cannot be implemented for any reason, then projects which are
ready to implement may be moved forward from the later years in the TIP, first
considering projects in FY 97 then projects in FY 98.
