-Summary:
Please register to join us for the National Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS) Users Quarterly Technical Assistance Webinar, scheduled for Tuesday, November 7, from 1-3pm ET.
The new NPMRDS provides average travel times on the National Highway System (NHS) and is used in calculating four of the measures in the System Performance/Freight/CMAQ performance measures final rule, which became effective on May 20, 2017. Hear about updates to the data since February 2017, the data conflation process, updates on quarterly data validation reports, and the use of NPMRDS for the new performance measures.
What is the NPMRDS?
The NPMRDS is a monthly archive of average travel times, reported every 5 minutes when data is available, on the National Highway System. The travel times are based on vehicle probe-based data. Separate average travel times are included for “all traffic”, freight and passenger travel. FHWA provides access to the NPMRDS to our State DOT and MPO partners for their performance management activities. Average travel times have been collected monthly since July 2013.
If you have any technical assistance questions on the first NPMRDS, you can still use the NPMRDSHelp@dot.gov e-mail address to get a response from our technical assistance contractor. Please direct any questions about registering for the webinar to Webconference@fhwa.gov, and any questions about the webinar itself to Andrew.Reovan@dot.gov. Questions about the new NPMRDS contract should be directed to Rich.Taylor@fhwa.gov.
