The following projects are part of the Regional Transportation Program of the Measure C Extension. Approximately $504 million has been divided equally between the urban and rural areas of the County, and more than $17 million will pay for improvements to Fresno Yosemite International and Chandler Airports.

The funding for the Regional Transportation Program comes from three sources – fifty percent from Measure C, twenty percent from the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), and thirty percent from the Regional Transportation Mitigation Impact Fee program (RTMF). The RTMF program is developed and approved by the Fresno COG and Transportation Authority in conjunction with all local jurisdictions. It will become effective no later than January 1, 2009 and shall cover the entire 20-year period of Measure C Extension.

Fresno COG, the Authority’s Regional Planning Agency, will prioritize the Measure C Extension projects and will assign the funding allocations and schedule completion dates for each project. Projects will not begin until all of the requirements are met.

Tier 2 projects, both Urban and Rural, are listed below and are in a generalized priority order. Projects will move forward as they become deliverable not in the order they are listed below. The Measure C Extension Expenditure Plan is reviewed every two years by Fresno COG to determine project readiness. The project funding order will be determined by Fresno COG during their biannual review and become deliverable based on the project cost benefit, project readiness, and funding availability.
