Overview
This reference manual on Statewide Opportunities for Integrating Operations, Safety, and Multimodal Planning is intended to assist managers and staff at State DOTs in their efforts to more effectively integrate operations, safety, and planning. The manual builds on a previous Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) document, Statewide Opportunities for Linking Planning and Operations: A Primer. While the primer identifies broad opportunities for State DOTs to integrate planning and operations, the reference manual extends this information to provide practical instruction on how to implement these opportunities and others along with case study examples and "toolkits" to help get started. The reference manual also expands the focus of integration to include operations, safety, and planning in a multimodal context.
