The North Florida TPO is currently developing the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for Fiscal Years 2026/2027 through 2030/2031. The TIP identifies all publicly funded bike/ped, highway, transit, port and aviation projects within the North Florida TPO area, which includes Clay, Duval, Nassau, and St. Johns counties.

The new draft TIP is posted on our interactive TIP website and was presented at the May TPO committee and board meetings. Virtual public meetings were held May 18-26.

Please visit the TIP page on our website for all the meeting videos and take the survey below to let us know what you think. 

The City of Jacksonville is home to more than 76 miles of shared-use paths connecting residents and visitors to neighborhoods, parks, destinations, and outdoor recreation opportunities across the city.

In an effort to highlight these valuable community assets, the City of Jacksonville Transportation Planning Division has launched the Meet the Trails video series. This initiative provides an in-depth look at trails throughout Jacksonville, showcasing the features, amenities, and recreational experiences each trail has to offer.

Residents and visitors are encouraged to explore Jacksonville's extensive trail network and take advantage of the outdoor opportunities available throughout our community.

The Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program helps schools create safer, more accessible ways for students to walk and bike to school.

By identifying and addressing barriers like:

•      Lack of sidewalks

•      Poor infrastructure

•      Few programs encouraging active transportation

RTS encourages healthy habits and improves safety around school zones.
