  • Trip Distribution Worksheet

  • Westside Project timing and financials which is in the current Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for FFY 2020 and 2021.  According to MRCOG TIP Coordinator, this is a high priority project for the City of Albuquerque and City of Rio Rancho.  This project will more than likely be completed over the next few years considering the amount of construction that is involved.   Here is a link to MRCOG website where you can find the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (which includes project lists), as well as the TIP: https://www.mrcog-nm.gov/233/Metro-Planning.
