Overview
The Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT) 2021 Statewide Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) Strategic Plan outlines a comprehensive approach to enhance safety and mobility across Texas by integrating planning, design, operations, construction, and maintenance activities. The plan emphasizes the use of innovative strategies and technologies to optimize the performance of existing infrastructure, addressing challenges posed by increasing congestion and limited funding. Key goals include reducing crashes and fatalities, improving travel time reliability, implementing projects that optimize system capacity, providing accurate travel information to the public, fostering collaboration among agencies, and embedding TSMO principles into all facets of transportation project development. The plan also highlights the importance of data-driven decision-making and continuous performance monitoring to ensure the effectiveness of TSMO initiatives. By adopting this strategic framework, TxDOT aims to proactively manage and operate an integrated transportation system that meets the evolving needs of Texas travelers.
