13    efficient and economical transportation services  in  ground,
14    air,  water  and all other modes of transportation throughout
15    the   state.    The   Department   shall    coordinate    its
16    transportation  planning activities with those of other state

23    private individuals and organizations, in the coordination of
24    plans  and  policies   for   development   of   the   state's
25    transportation system.

 5    detail of the 5 year period in the immediate future.
 6        Annual  and 5 year project programs for each State system

10    be listed and mapped in  a  distinctive  fashion  to  clearly
11    identify the priority status of the projects: (1) projects to
12    be  committed for execution; (2) tentative projects which are
13    dependent upon funding or other constraints; and  (3)  needed
14    projects  which  are not programmed due to lack of funding or
15    other constraints.
16        All projects shall be related to the priority systems  of
17    the  master plan, and the priority criteria identified.  Cost
18    and estimated completion dates shall  be  included  for  work
19    required  to  complete  a useable segment or component beyond
20    the 5 year period of the program.

25    5-year plans submitted by the Department.
26        (c)  The  Department  shall  publish  and  deliver to the
27    Governor and the General Assembly by November 1 of each  year
