Current Projects and Studies

Shasta Metro Improvement Program (MIP) (pdf)
The Shasta Metro Program (MIP) provides a comprehensive list of improvements and prospective funding sources needed to address congestion on Shasta County's regional transportation system, including freeways, interchanges, and key arterials.

While individual elements of the MIP are called out within the Shasta County Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), this effort provides a subset of regionally significant projects in the south-central urban region needed for analysis and quantification of system performance with and without proposed improvements. This effort includes a general funding analysis for strategic and coordinated use of local, state and federal funding.
