RTIP
Regional Transportation Improvement Program
Regional Transportation Improvement Program
As the RTPA, BCAG is required to prepare a Regional Transportation Improvement program (RTIP) every two years. The purpose of the RTIP is to identify programming recommendations for the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The STIP is comprised of two components, the Regional Improvement Program (RIP) for projects nominated by regional agencies in California, such as BCAG and the Interregional Improvement Program (IIP) for projects nominated by Caltrans. The STIP is adopted by the California Transportation Commission.

Requirements for ALL Projects
1. Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy – All projects are required to be included in the current 2020 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). Projects in the 2020 RTP/SCS include:
-
- Appendix 10-1: Projects Programmed - Short Term
- Appendix 10-2: Projects Planned - Long Term
- Appendix 10-4: Projects by Performance Measure - PM 1 (Safety)

3. Criteria for Measuring Performance and Cost-Effectiveness – Depending on project, some level of performance metric demonstration is required. The project level benefit evaluation is listed in the STIP guidelines and posted at: The criterion in the guidelines aims to capture; VMT reductions, air quality benefits, mode shift, distance to transit service and safety benefits as relevant to the project. (under development).
4. ePPR – Electronic Project Programming Request form is required. Guidance and the Electronic Project Programming Request (ePPR) APPLICATION is posted here at: https://dot.ca.gov/programs/financial-programming/office-of-capital-improvement-programming-ocip.

CalSTA - Climate Action Plan for Transportation (CAPTI) - The CAPTI builds on executive orders signed by Governor Gavin Newsom in 2019 and 2020 targeted at reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in transportation, which account for more than 40 percent of all polluting emissions, to reach the state's ambitious climate goals.
Executive Order N-19-19 - Directs CalSTA to leverage discretionary state transportation funds to reduce GHG emissions in the transportation sector and adapt to climate change.
