County Engineers and Local Public Agencies
Local public agencies (LPAs) are an important partner in transforming transportation at the local level. IDOT assists, guides, and directs LPAs in the accomplishment of multi-modal (highway, rail, pedestrian, and bicycle) activities to promote safety, economic development, job creation, and quality of life.
This includes establishing highway design standards, policies, and procedures for thedistributionand expenditure of federal, state, and motor fuel tax funds; assisting in planning, financing, design, construction and maintenance,and integrating LPA programs and projects with IDOT programs; and monitoring departmental relations with LPAs.
