Description: Following the passage of the 2023 Transportation Modernization Act, the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) released its first fiscally constrained 10-Year Project Plan. This process represents an evolution in philosophy at TDOT regarding how we fund and deliver transportation projects. We have taken a critical eye to our projects statewide with the mindset of “what gets started, gets finished” to better serve Tennessee with greater accountability and communication. As part of TDOT's 10-Year Project Planning process, the Statewide Partnership Program (SPP) is a critical avenue for local stakeholders to provide input on their priorities to better inform the annual reassessment of TDOT's 10-Year Project Plan. The program supports local authorities in maximizing funding dollars for critical local mobility and economic development needs.TDOT is committed to working with Tennessee's local jurisdictions, municipalities, and counties, through their respective MPOs and RPOs to identify priorities and accelerate projects with identified local funding and support, whenever possible. Accordingly, all submissions gathered through this process will be evaluated for inclusion in TDOT's updated 10-Year Project Plan, which will be released in Spring 2026. All project proposals will be evaluated based on performance, deliverability, and cost. TDOT intends to continue prioritizing projects that are MPO and RPO priorities that leverage financial investment by locals to improve deliverability and costs of projects. The SPP is primarily meant as a first step in the planning process to gather data on local needs, priorities, and interest in partnering with TDOT. Think of this process as "open enrollment" for TDOT projects; rather than communities advocating for their priorities at disparate and ad-hoc times throughout the year, this structure allows for standardized information to be provided during a specific period. While submissions gathered are not guaranteed to receive funding, all information provided is essential in the development of future 10-Year Plans and for TDOT to better understand, and further communicate, the outstanding critical transportation funding needs in Tennessee.With the passage of the FY2026 budget, TDOT received a $50 million one-time appropriation to revitalize the State Infrastructure Fund (SIF). As TDOT works to implement this program in conjunction with the Tennessee Local Development Authority (TLDA), it is important to note that the TDOT Statewide Partnership Program (SPP) and the SIF serve complementary but distinct roles in supporting transportation infrastructure across Tennessee. The SPP is a competitive, limited-window opportunity aimed at locally prioritized traditional highway and bridge projects, offering communities a chance to leverage local funds with state investment to advance key initiatives. In contrast, the Statewide Infrastructure Fund provides a longer application period and offers low-interest loans that can finance a broader range of transportation infrastructure needs. Notably, one key element of the collaborative nature of these two programs is that communities without the ability to offer financial partnership through the SPP with traditional local funds could consider utilizing an SIF loan, subject to the approval of the TLDA, to enable flexible, layered financing strategies to support local efforts to partner with the state on transportation improvements.
