Abstract:

The 2020 consensus program is one of the most important decision-making processes in a generation in the transportation field. It is critically important that it be done well and that the results be a product that sets the stage for building, operating, and managing the best possible system for the next century, not just one that is an acceptable follow-on to the Interstate program for all interest groups participating in the 2020 process. This paper discusses two basic topics: resources and organization. For each topic an assessment of the current situation is made. Also, the prospects for future resources and the prospects for dealing with current organizational shortcomings are discussed. Recommendations are made concerning programs, organizational structure, and funding.
