Overview
The FHWA Organizing and Planning for Operations Team invites you to a webinar summarizing FHWA’s recent efforts in advancing TSMO program planning. The webinar will provide an overview of the recent FHWA primer on TSMO program planning and will feature updates from TSMO leaders at three State departments of transportation (DOTs) that recently hosted FHWA program planning workshops. In addition, FHWA will provide a synopsis of the TSMO Program Planning Roundtables. TSMO program planning facilitates integration and mainstreaming of TSMO within a transportation organization to support new and evolving roles and responsibilities of these organizations. Through TSMO program planning, State DOTs create and sustain a TSMO mission for their organization and support the effective delivery of a TSMO program. TSMO program planning identifies the strategic, programmatic, and tactical elements needed to advance TSMO as a critical part of an organization’s mission.
