Accession Number: 01539841
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This article explores the efforts made by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’ (AASHTO’s) Standing Committee on Performance Management to develop projects through the Transportation Research Board’s National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) that established comparable performance measures relevant to transportation. These measures may be employed by state departments of transportation (DOTs) and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) seeking to improve accountability and identify effective practices. The knowledge gained from this series of comparative performance measurement research projects has been invaluable and has proved a critical, foundational step as state departments of transportation and metropolitan planning organizations prepare to implement the performance measurement requirements of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act. The article highlights various performance measurement projects undertaken by NCHRP.
