JACKSON, Wyo. — The Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) will be hosting an open house today, Sept. 1 from 5 to 7 p.m to discuss the State Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP) and other local projects.

The meeting will be held at the Teton County Commission Chambers at 200 South Willow Street in Jackson.

STIP is a six-year program approved by the transportation commission. It provides a snapshot of
existing and expected projects and their schedules and is continually updated. The current STIP is for
the years 2021-2026 and represents the planned construction, preliminary engineering, and right-of-way
costs of each project. The program also indicates the share of federal funding, state funding and other
funding sources for each project.

WYDOT will also be sharing the same information with the Teton County Commissioners during their
meeting on Sept. 20 at 1:30 p.m.

Topics include:
• Program overview
• Information on funding
• Timeline of the process
• Details on 900+ statewide transportation improvements
