We do not have a formal program. However, on all major projects, we involve all identified stakeholders, hold numerous public meetings and hearings to gather public input, and we work closely with these groups to develop mutually agreeable solutions to their concerns.

CSS Projects:
The I-580 extension between Reno and Carson City is considered a CSS project. It is currently under construction. NDOT is currently working on several capacity projects that involve CSS principals such at the I-15 at F Street project.
NDOT has recently begun holding public meetings that cover multiple projects that are closely related. This process helps raise the awareness of the various projects in an area that may impact the public and how they interconnect. We have been using social networking to get information out as well.
