The Caltrans Division of Local Assistance has released the updates to the 2022 Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) and the Local Assistance Program Guidelines (LAPG). All changes have been documented in Local Programs Procedures (LPP) 21-01 and can be viewed here.
The LAPM guides the scope, organization, design, construction, and maintenance of public transportation facilities when projects are funded with federal or State dollars. The manual describes the processes, procedures, documents, authorizations, approvals, and certifications required in order to receive federal-aid and/or state funds for many types of local transportation projects.
