Delivery of the Federal-Aid Programs

Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO’s) and County Lead Agencies are also responsible to ensure delivery of the local portion of the federal funds they program in the STIP. WSDOT sets delivery targets for each MPO and county lead agency, based upon their annual appropriated STP, TA and CMAQ funds. In addition, WSDOT monitors the bridge, safety and safe routes to school projects, based upon the local agency schedule identified at time of award. These decisions are reviewed monthly and MPOs and counties coordinate to cooperatively deliver the local federal program.
