Columbus, Ohio – The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is seeking public input on the Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP) for 2026 through 2029. This initiative gives Ohioans a voice in shaping the state’s transportation infrastructure over the next four years.
Public Engagement to Shape Future Projects
STIP outlines planned improvements across multiple transportation modes, including roads, bridges, public transit, and other essential infrastructure projects. ODOT encourages residents to review the draft plan and provide feedback to ensure that transportation needs align with community priorities.
Public comments on the draft STIP documents will be accepted through April 11, 2025. Feedback from Ohioans will help refine the plan before it is finalized, ensuring that infrastructure developments effectively serve communities across the state.

Residents can review the draft plan and find details about STIP Open Houses by visiting the STIP website at transportation.ohio.gov/stip. Those interested in submitting feedback can do so via email to [email protected] or by mailing written comments to:
