WSDOT

Metropolitan and regional planning conducted by the various MPOs and RTPOs in the State of Washington - including that of WCOG - is integrated with the state's own transportation planning process, which is the responsibility of the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT). One example of this is the alignment of WCOG's six-year regional Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) - a list of upcoming transportation projects developed in cooperation with WSDOT that includes all federally and state-funded regional projects - with the Statewide TIP. Another example is the collaboration among WSDOT, WCOG and its member jurisdictions on system evaluation and planning. The integration of regional and statewide planning is also reflected in WSDOT's membership on the Whatcom Transportation Policy Board.
