Municipal Assistance Section - Local Projects

Municipal Assistance (MA) technical staff is assigned to work with, and support, the municipalities in the development of projects while providing oversight and guidance to ensure projects are developed in accordance with applicable design standards and federal and state regulations. Projects can reach into every area of transportation such as: stormwater improvement projects, development of bicycle and pedestrian facilities along with educational outreach, municipal park and ride facilities, bridge improvements, roadway and intersection improvements, and a variety of transportation enhancements. In addition, the Better Roads program offers municipalities the opportunity to work with experienced and qualified staff to improve and enhance local roads through grant opportunities in part to help meet their obligations under the Municipal Roads General Permit.
