KYOVA INTERSTATE PLANNING COMMISSION AMENDMENT #8 TO THE FY 2024-2027 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM The Public is hereby made aware that the KYOVA Fiscal Years (FY) 2024-2027 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for the KYOVA Interstate Planning Commission Planning Area is being amended in accordance to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) effective on November 15, 2021, in cooperation with the West Virginia Department of Transportation / Division of Highways (WVDOH), Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC), Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Tri-State Transit Authority (TTA), Ashland Bus System (ABS), and Lawrence County Port Authority (LCPA). The FY 2024-2027 TIP is for the KYOVA Interstate Planning Commission’s Planning Area which includes: Cabell and Wayne counties in West Virginia; Boyd and Greenup counties in Kentucky; and the urbanized area of Lawrence County in Ohio. KYOVA supports the 3 state DOT’s Performance Measure (PM) targets for PM 1: Safety; PM 2: Bridge and Pavement; and PM 3: System Performance in order to track each transportation project toward meeting the baseline goals for each measure in each of the key national performance areas. The FY 2024-2027 TIP includes priority projects and programs for which implementation is anticipated in the four fiscal years (FY 2024, FY 2025, FY 2026, and FY 2027). KYOVA’s FY 2024-2027 TIP describes all highways projects, maintenance, and new capacity; transit projects (both capital and operating); and bicycle and other transportation projects for which federal funding is anticipated and provides a financial plan for implementation. The current TIP also includes estimates of available FTA funds for vehicles to serve the elderly and handicapped. Furthermore, the FY 2024-2027 TIP satisfies the Program of Projects (POP) requirements of the FTA. General public review will begin Thursday April 10, 2025, and conclude at the close of business on Friday April 25, 2025, which satisfies the required 15-day public review period.
