Public Participation Process

New Jersey is completely covered by its three MPOs: the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC); the South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization (SJTPO); and the North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority (NJTPA). This STIP incorporates their three separate TIPs without modification.

Each MPO has a public participation process for their regional transportation plan, TIP and conformity determination. The state makes copies of the STIP available at each MPO public meeting, and representatives from the NJDOT and NJ TRANSIT are present to answer questions and concerns raised by the public about the programs. The duration of the public comment period for each TIP and the STIP is 30 days. MPOs collect public comments on behalf of the state, and responses are prepared collaboratively.

Public Comments

Public comments regarding the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) should be submitted through the Metropolitan Planning Organization's (MPO).
