Public Participation Panels:
TIP Workshops & Public Comment Period

The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC) seeks public comment on planning and project priorities for federal and state funding. Your input will help develop the 2007-2010 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and Project Region, the next update of the Southwestern Pennsylvania regional plan.

How to Get Involved

SPC’s Public Participation Panels are hosting workshops where you can learn more about regional planning in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Representatives from SPC and the public agencies that are our partners in planning will be on hand to answer questions and assist you in submitting your comments and ideas about transportation and development needs in our region.
