Projects are evaluated based on <br />their merit through an analysis of the existing and future conditions, the benefits the project is <br />expected to provide, the project's multi -modal characteristics and how the project fits in with <br />local priorities. Each of the Department's six modes of transportation (highway, ferry, rail, public <br />transportation, bicycle & pedestrian, and aviation) uses a data - driven approach for ranking <br />projects. The outcome of the Strategic Prioritization Process serves as input to the Draft State <br />Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). <br />For additional information on the Strategic Prioritization Process, including project data and <br />scores, please click here. <br />Mobility Fund <br />In 2010, the Mobility Fund was created as a way to generate new dollars for transportation <br />projects of statewide or regional significance. The creation of the fund was included in the North <br />Carolina General Assembly's 2010 Appropriations Act. <br />The General Assembly identified the I -85 Corridor Improvement Project Phase II (I -85 widening <br />from NC 150 to I -85 Business) as the first project to be funded by the Mobility Fund. <br />Subsequent Mobility Fund projects are to be advanced using the project criteria and selection <br />process developed by the Department, in accordance with the Act. <br />fl Presentation on NC Mobility Fund <br />For additional information on the Mobility Fund project criteria and selection process, including <br />project data, scores and funding schedule please click here. <br />© Copyright NCDOT NCDOT Home I NC.gov I Accessibility I Privacy Statement <br />41 <br />
