  • ​Overview

    The Integrated Mobility Division (IMD) Business Guide has been developed to assist IMD's local transportation partners in managing and delivering various multimodal services and projects.  It has been developed to help our partners to understand the requirements of NCDOT, the Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration for state and federally-funded services and projects. 

    How to Use This Guide

    This Guide is organized by function and activity in order to follow certain process step required to apply, manage and deliver services and projects in North Carolina.  Its contents refer directly to actions that partners must take in order to utilize state and Federal funding sources to provide those services and deliver those projects.  Links are provided to critical policies and procedure as well as forms and documents that are relative to each specific section of the Guide.  

    Many questions you may have can be answered by reviewing the contents of this Guide and referring back to those sections as you apply and utilize grants for public services and funds for multimodal projects.   Going forward, this Guide will be updated on a regular basis to capture changes that are critical to the delivery of services and projects.
