The MYP details what IDOT plans to expend on transportation in the upcoming fiscal year (annual program) as well as setting a framework for what highway spending will be over the next 6 fiscal years. This is the fifth MYP published since the increase in revenues associated with the 2019 Capital Bill.

The Department announced a $40.99 billion MYP. The transportation plan is the largest program ever announced in the state of Illinois. The plan includes funding for state and local highways, transit, rail, airports and waterways.

FY 2024 – 2029 IDOT Multi-Year Plan for Multimodal Modes

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) issued its multi-year spending plan (MYP) for multimodal. The MYP proposes $4.1 billion in capital spending for transit, rail, airports and waterways. As with highways, this is the largest MYP ever announced for the state of Illinois.

The majority of the MYP funding is from the state of Illinois because of the Rebuild Illinois Capital Program. The federal government's contribution is also increasing because of the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).
