The Dutchess County Transportation Council (DCTC) is current accepting comments from the community about its Draft FFY 2026-2030 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) – the prioritized listing of federally funded transportation projects in Dutchess County.
Developed as part of the DCTC’s metropolitan transportation planning process, the TIP is one of the DCTC’s core products, where agencies and municipalities commit to carrying out federally funded projects. The TIP provides details such as the sponsor, scope, schedule and cost for each project, and the DCTC updates it every three years. The Draft FFY 2026-2030 TIP covers the period from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2030, and will program over $164 million in federal transportation funding for state and local projects in Dutchess County. The five-year program will fund critical repairs to local bridges, maintain state and local roads, and support local bus and commuter rail services; residents can also view the DCTC’s online TIP Viewer map for more details about the projects. The Draft TIP proposes four new highway projects:
- Repaving Route 9 from Route 113 (Spackenkill Road) in the Town of Poughkeepsie to West Dorsey Lane in the Town of Hyde Park ($15.5 million) (2026)
- Improving the CR 114 (Main Street)/Grand Avenue intersection in the Town of Poughkeepsie ($4.3 million) (2028)
- Making pedestrian and bicycle improvements on Beekman Street in the City of Beacon ($3.8 million) (2029)
- Replacing the Parsonage Street Bridge in the Town of Rhinebeck ($3.2 million) (2028)
In addition to projects located solely in Dutchess County, the Draft TIP programs federal funding for systemwide maintenance projects across the seven-county region of NYSDOT-Region 8, which includes Dutchess County. These projects cover work such as bridge and culvert repairs, road paving and traffic signal and sign improvements on State highways.
The comment period provides the public with an opportunity to comment on the Draft TIP. Comments may be submitted by mail, email or phone, using the contact information below, by 5 p.m. on Monday, June 23, 2025.
