Title: Case Study: Caltrans: Corridor System Management Plan: Using Performance Measures to Conduct Analysis and Make Decisions
Accession Number: 01159906
Record Type: Monograph
Abstract: In California, corridor system management plans (CSMPs) are designed to focus transportation planning efforts on the effective and efficient use of all facilities within an urban corridor by promoting systematic management strategies that optimize the current freeway system. Corridors include a roadway connecting two points as well as the major parallel arterials and modal systems that operate on or within the broader area. The concept behind the development of CSMPs came from the desire to focus on the total transportation system and the recognition that the best or most needed projects were not always being selected and funded. Ideally, the CSMP will succeed where other selection processes have failed because the backbone of the CSMP stems from a core set of performance measurements that create a consistent basis from which to conduct the analysis and make decisions. This case study is discussed under the following headings: Overview; Key Aspects of the Screening Process; Lessons Learned; Barriers and Solutions; and Recommendations.
