Best Practices: TSMO Program Planning
|
|
The concept of a TSMO program plan is based on the idea that to incorporate TSMO as an integrated part of a transportation agency, TSMO-specific processes, strategies, and deployments must be designed to work with already existing institutional arrangements.
A TSMO program addresses the strategic, programmatic, and tactical elements of TSMO.

This collection of resources and tools is designed to help transportation systems management and operations (TSMO) professionals plan for the 2026 World Cup. These resources come, in part, from a monthly call NOCoE hosts for the 11 U.S. cities hosting the 2026 World Cup, where the group shares resources and ideas for planning one of the worlds largest events.
Additional resource links, guidance, and information will be continuously added through the World Cup in 2026 and for future planned special events.

The Move Metairie Tracking Forward project enhances safety, efficiency, and quality of life for Metairie residents by providing real-time updates on train blockages at a busy crossing. The app alerts users about train arrivals and estimated time of arrival of the train to the crossing, and wait times, saving time and reducing fuel costs.
It improves emergency vehicle access, poten-tially saving lives, and allows drivers to choose alternate routes, minimizing delays. Designed for future expansion to other crossings, the project engages the community through effective com-munication, ultimately transforming train traffic management in the area.
