Kemmerer to host District 3 WYDOT open house

Kemmerer, Wyo. The Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT), District 3 Staff will be hosting a public open house June 7, 2018, from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the South Lincoln Training and Events Center,  215 WY-233, on the 2018 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The STIP is a six-year approved program that illustrates WYDOT’s future projects and funding.  The financial budget is constrained based on projected federal and state funding.

WYDOT utilizes a continuing and comprehensive process of asset management that encourages input from various sources, which assists in determining capital improvement projects.  Capital improvement projects are revised and confirmed through input from engineering studies, WYDOT officials, the Transportation Commission and through public communication at STIP meetings.  The purpose of this meeting is to collect feedback and public comment on current and future projects in the Lincoln County area.

“This is a good opportunity for local residents to share their thoughts about the work that is going on, and the work that is planned in Lincoln County,” WYDOT Public Relations Specialist Stephanie Harsha said.

There will be information at the meeting about projects and issues in Lincoln County, as well as projects that are planned district-wide.  Public involvement is valuable to WYDOT when planning and coordinating highway projects.  Information on funding programs available through WYDOT for local government projects will also be available.
