Abstract

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PENNDOT) initiated the Congested Corridor Improvement Program (CCIP) to identify several congested corridors in the Commonwealth and, in conjunction with its partners, define and implement the needed improvements. The goal of the CCIP is a 20 percent reduction in peak hour travel time on the improved transportation corridor. The CCIP initiative resulted from PENNDOT's recent strategic planning process, the "Moving Pennsylvania Forward Update." In addition, this congested corridor initiative is consistent with the principles of regional and corridor-based planning advocated by PennPlan (Pennsylvania's Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan) and Pennsylvania's Highway Congestion Management Strategic Plan, which was developed with input from planning partners and other stakeholders. The CCIP study costs are funded by PENNDOT. However, the actual implementation of the recommended improvements, including final design and construction costs, is funded through the 12-Year Program.
