According to officials with the Wyoming Department of Transportation, a key part of the State Transportation Improvement Program, or STIP process, involves annual meetings with public officials and other individuals who play key transportation partnership roles in Wyoming. The STIP is a prioritized construction plan for the 1,326 miles of highway in northwest Wyoming.
