Overview
Transportation Systems Management & Operations (TSM&O) has emerged as a formal discipline for transportation agencies throughout the country. The intent of TSM&O is to assist agencies more effectively in operating existing facilities and systems to maximize their full service potential. TSM&O strategies aim to better leverage capacity limitations due to congestion, incidents, construction, weather, poor signalization, and other factors.
MDOT/SHA is deploying TSM&O strategies to actively manage Maryland’s multimodal transportation network. This Strategic Implementation Plan summarizes a business case for TSM&O; establishes the mission, vision, goals, objectives and performance measures for TSM&O within MDOT/SHA; and identifies the strategies and projects required to implement TSM&O in the areas of leadership/organization, business processes, tools and data. It also recommends resource needs to carry out the Plan.
