The passage of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) and the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act ushered in a range of new provisions for the Federal-aid highway program related to transportation performance management and highway infrastructure. State Departments of Transportation (DOTs), metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), FHWA Division Offices, and other stakeholders are seeking information about requirements, as well as noteworthy practices. This course provides an effective, time-efficient, and accessible format for practitioners in State DOTs, MPOs, FHWA, and other groups. This format provides a richer context for information than static materials through the use of knowledge checks and other interactive features.
The goal of this course is to introduce you to the legislation and regulatory requirements related to the management and use of data. The course will help you build a working knowledge of how to meet TPM requirements of 23 CFR 490 and the associated MAP-21 and FAST Acts--including the specific skills of collecting data, processing and storying data, data distribution and retrieval, data analysis, and data delivery.
