The TIP contains transportation and transit projects in the Joplin Metropolitan Area that are partially funded by Federal transportation programs over the next four-year period. The public comment period for the TIP amendment begins Friday, August 25 and extends to Thursday, August 31. The proposed amendment can be view on the JATSO website at http://www.joplinmo.org/DocumentCenter/View/7232.
