Notice of MPO Board Approval: Broward MPO Fiscal Year 2026–2030 Transportation Improvement Program Amendment (FM# S5004601: SNAKE ROAD RECONSTRUCTION)
 

The Broward MPO approved the following Amendment to the fiscal year (FY) 2026–2030 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) at its February 12, 2026 meeting. Project details are as follows:

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requested to add the Snake Road Reconstruction - Miccosukee Tribe of Indians project to the FY 2026 - 2030 TIP.

The FHWA Tribal Transportation Program team works in consultation with Tribal Governments to achieve transportation planning on Tribal lands. A Tribal Transportation Program Agreement between the U.S. Department of Transportation and a Tribe provides an understanding that Tribal Governments inherit "all the functions and duties that the Secretary of the Interior would have performed (Chapter 2 of Title 23, USC)." As per this legislation, a major planning effort FHWA has approval authority on, in partnership with a Tribe, is the development of an annual Tribal Transportation Program Transportation Improvement Program (TTPTIP) derived from a list of eligible projects approved under a Tribe's individual TIP. The transportation planning process on Tribal lands as a whole is carried out by the Tribal Government's staff. The TTPTIP only includes funding information from the previous fiscal year (FY 2025) since FHWA does not begin coordinating with Tribal governments until the first quarter of each fiscal year and works through the end of the fiscal year to compile the information for the published TTPTIP.

The project is included in the TTPTIP for FY 2025 and should be included in the Broward MPO's FY 2026-2030 TIP in order to maintain consistency between the Programs. The project is led by the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians. Please refer to the project on page six of the State of Florida Tribal Transportation Program Transportation Improvement Program 2025 found in Attachment 1. For all Amendment details, please see Attachment 2 or visit https://browardmpo.org/core-products/transportation-improvement-program-tip.

No other projects in the TIP were affected by the Amendment.
