Transportation Improvement Program
The City of Ridgefield's six-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is used as a guide for carrying out a coordinated street construction program and is essential to implementing the goals of the Comprehensive and Transportation Capital Facilities Plans.
Public Hearing for 2025-2030 Six Year Transportation Improvement Program scheduled for the regular City Council meeting on Thursday, December 19. The proposed document is available for review, 2025-2030 Six Year Transporation Improvement Program (PDF).
The TIP uses objective criteria to evaluate and prioritize transportation improvement projects and provides a reasonably funded revenue plan projected to achieve those goals. While addressing city, regional and state transportation priorities, the TIP recognizes the vision set by the community and the Ridgefield City Council.
The 6-year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a separate project list from the Transportation Capital Facilities Plan, and does not have a bearing on Traffic Impact fees (TIF) or TIF credits.
What is the Transportation Improvement Program?
The TIP document includes:
- How the TIP was developed and programmed
- Public involvement in the development of this TIP
- Available funding sources for projects contained in this TIP
- Six-year program funding matrix, and
- Where to find more information on key projects in this TIP.
Capital improvement projects within the Transportation Improvement Program include new roadways, roadway widening and reconstruction, bridge and culvert replacement, repair and rehabilitation, pavement preservation, landslide repairs, and pedestrian and bicycle facilities. The City’s vision is to ensure all major transportation projects are multimodal in nature; roadways are not just for cars and trucks, they also need to be designed for pedestrians, the ADA community, bicycles, transit (where applicable), and even golf carts in certain areas of the City. The City also has an objective to increase access to Electric Vehicle charging stations around the City.
Next Steps
City Council will hold a public hearing for the Six-Year Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for 2025-2030 on Thursday, December 19, 2024 during a regular scheduled City Council meeting, beginning at 6:30 PM.
