Local Project Administration

Maine Department of Transportation

  

Local Project Administration is a way for municipalities to get transportation projects done with a maximum of local control.  This process may also allow work to be done sooner and with less overall cost.   A Locally Administered Project (LAP) can also be combined with other municipal projects such as utilities, or roadside enhancements.  Answers to frequently asked questions can be found at this link:
