Federal Transportation Improvement Program

The Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) is a federally mandated four-year program of all surface transportation projects that will receive federal funding or are subject to a federally required action, such as a review and approval of environmental documents. As the Metropolitan Planning Agency (MPO) for the region, the San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) is responsible for developing the FTIP to be submitted to Caltrans and the federal funding agencies. SJCOG prepares and maintains the FTIP in partnership with our member agencies and in cooperation with state and federal agencies and the eight San Joaquin Valley counties.

This program lists every transportation project that will receive federal funds or that is subject to a federally required action. This means that many transit, highway, local roadway, bicycle and pedestrian investments are included in the FTIP. The projects included in the FTIP are consistent with SJCOG's Regional Transportation Plan (RTP).

The FTIP must comply with three key tests. It must:

  • Give the public the opportunity to comment.
  • Demonstrate that the money programmed, or committed, to the projects does not exceed the amount estimated to be available. The FTIP includes a financial summary that shows financial constraint, so that sufficient financial capacity exists for programmed projects to be implemented.
  • Conform to the State Implementation Plan for the region with consideration to federal Clean Air Act.

Learn more about the FTIP by viewing the FTIP slides [PDF].

Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Cost Effectiveness Documentation

Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds transportation projects that help to reduce pollutants in federally designated non-attainment and maintenance regions. In 2007, all San Joaquin Valley MPOs adopted policies for distributing a minimum of 20 percent of CMAQ funds to projects meeting cost-effectiveness thresholds for emission reductions. In the 2025 FTIP, which covers Federal Fiscal Years 2024-2025 through FFY 2027-2028, SJCOG is investing 68 percent toward highly cost-effective projects (less than $88 per pound of the region's criteria pollutants).

Annual Obligation Report

Federal law requires MPOs such as SJCOG to publish annual listings of projects for which federal funds have been obligated in the San Joaquin region for the preceding Federal Fiscal Year.
