MassDOT Highway initiating a project

MassDOT initiates new projects through a formal 3-step process using the Massachusetts Project Intake Tool (MaPIT). You need a GeoDOT account to log into MaPIT and initiate new projects. For more information about the project development process, refer to Chapter 2 of the Project Development and Design Guide.

Step 1 - Project Need

Using MaPIT, project proponent identifies project needs.

Step 2 - Project Initiation

Using MaPIT, project proponent works with a MassDOT District Office or other MassDOT Section to define project scope, costs, timeline, impacts and responsibilities.

Step 3 - Project Review Committee

District Office or other MassDOT Section submits project to the Project Review Committee for approval.
