Surface Transportation Program
The local Surface Transportation Program (STP) uses a federal funding source, Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), to fund a portion of the project costs. The federal share for STP is generally 80% with a 20% local match, but is subject to the sliding scale adjustment.
FAST Act funds projects that are on a Federal-Aid Highway System with a functional classification of collector and above, bridge projects on any public road, transit capital projects, bus terminals and bus facilities. Roadways with a local road/street functional classification cannot obtain federal funding, except for bridge projects.
Will County Governmental League has a STP Local Methodology Guidebook document that details the Call for Projects, project application, project selection, and program management process.
The Council only provides federal STP funding for Phase II engineering, and construction phases (included construction engineering) of the project development process. Not funded and 100% the responsibility of the local agency are: Phase I engineering and right-of-way acquisition. This is subject to change each Call for Projects.
