Pennsylvania State Transportation Commission Adopts Updated 12-Year Transportation Program

HARRISBURG, PA — The State Transportation Commission (STC) recently adopted the 2025 12-Year Transportation Program (TYP). The plan anticipates that $88 billion will be available over the next 12 years for improvements to roads, bridges, transit systems, airports, railroads, and active transportation — an increase of more than 5 percent from the 2023 TYP.

The TYP, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation's (PennDOT) official mid-range planning tool, lists statewide planned projects across all modes of transportation and assigns funding over a 12-year period. The TYP also highlights some of PennDOT's initiatives and accomplishments over the past two years ranging from the modernization of train stations to implementing innovative strategies and the latest technologies to enhance safety and efficiency across a wide range of operations.

“Transportation planning is a lengthy and collaborative process. By the time a new project starts in your neighborhood, it's already several years old," PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll said. “PennDOT is always seeking ways to improve transportation infrastructure, and we look forward to putting the next 12 years of improvements into motion for travelers around the state."

The newly adopted program anticipates the following funding availability in the first four years of the TYP from federal, state, and local sources:

  • $16.4 billion for state highway and bridge projects
  • $12.5 billion for public transit
  • $352 million for multimodal projects
  • $236 million for rail freight
  • $175 million for aviation

Four Rural Planning Organizations, 19 Metropolitan Planning Organizations, and one independent county partnered with PennDOT to review and develop the update. Now that the STC has adopted the update, it has been submitted to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration for review. The FHWA coordinates with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to review the plan's conformity with air quality requirements.

Public input early in the TYP planning process played a key role in identifying investments in the various transportation modes.
