The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) updates the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) on a biannual basis. The STIP is Ohio’s four-year transportation planning document which presents the fiscally balanced, multi-modal transportation program for the State of Ohio. Included are projects both federal and state funded scheduled for some phase of implementation during the four year period. As a designated Regional Transportation Planning Organization (RTPO), OMEGA develops a Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (RTIP) for Carroll, Columbiana, Coshocton, Guernsey, Harrison, Holmes, Muskingum, and Tuscarawas Counties which is directly included in the STIP for the State Fiscal Years 2026-2029.
During October 2024, OMEGA hosted Rural Consultation meetings. These meetings are designed to disseminate information about ODOT-programmed projects and collect feedback about potential projects within local areas. These events are also an opportunity to gather information about local projects that may be added to the RTIP or Long-Range Transportation Plan.
From March through April 2025, OMEGA hosted public outreach and engagement meetings in person at locations throughout the region. OMEGA encourages all residents and elected officials throughout our eight county region to participate.
Projects may be submitted to OMEGA at anytime for inclusion into the RTIP or Long-Range Transportation Plan. Please submit projects by clicking HERE.
