As a recipient of federal funds, CAMPO is required to maintain a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), a short range plan that covers a five-year period. The TIP includes local projects sponsored by the City of Columbus and Bartholomew County, as well as Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) projects for state and federal roads that take place within Bartholomew County.

The TIP serves several specific purposes, including: (1) the implementation of the Metropolitan Transportation Plan, (2) providing transportation project information to the public, (3) establishing a clear, coordinated schedule for transportation projects and their funding, and (4) providing an overview of project costs.

FY 2026-2030 Transportation Improvement Program (current)

The TIP was approved by the CAMPO Policy Board at their May 12, 2025 meeting. The TIP becomes effective beginning with the state fiscal year on July 1, 2025. Once approved by the MPO Policy Board, the TIP is then forwarded to INDOT for final review. The TIP must be approved by the MPO and the Governor, and a conformity determination made by the FHWA and the FTA. The TIP then becomes, part of the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), which was approved August 28, 2025.

Original Approval

Although a complete TIP update takes place every two years, the document is amended on a continual basis. Amendments and modifications include adding new CAMPO and INDOT projects, and changes in the timing, scope and cost of projects.
