| 摘要： | Those familiar with the Accelerated Construction Technology Transfer, or ACTT, process will tell you that comments such as the one made by Jim Sorenson during his closing remarks at the Hawaii ACTT workshop on April 20, 2006, are an accurate reflection of how Accelerated Construction Technology Transfer impacts the project planning process. Thats because ACTT brings together a host of national experts who are committed to fostering innovation, saving time and money, and minimizing inconvenience for the department of transportations (DOTs) ultimate customer, the traveling public. The traveling public was very much on the Hawaii Department of Transportations (HDOTs) mind when it approached the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) about hosting an ACTT workshop for the Interstate Route H-1, Pearl City, Waimalu and Airport Viaduct Deck Improvements project: steadily increasing traffic volumes and deteriorating deck conditions were prevalent throughout the corridor, and funding constraints meant that the public could face up to five years of construction. HDOT found this timeframe and the potential public impact unacceptable. Together, FHWA and HDOT established the following skill sets for the Interstate Route H-1, Pearl City, Waimalu and Airport Viaduct Deck Improvements project: Construction; Innovative Contracting; Traffic Engineering/Safety/ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems); Public Relations; Structures/Geotechnical/Materials; Environmental. Each skill set team focused on how the ACTT process applied to their area of expertise, while the group as a whole searched for methods and measures to help HDOT achieve its goals of reducing project costs and accelerating the construction timeframe by at least 50 percent. As the workshop progressed, each team summarized their thoughts and narrowed them down to a list of priority recommendations. On the final day, each skill set presented their suggestions to the conference attendees. Now that the workshop is complete, HDOT will sift through the various recommendations and decide which ideas should be implemented as part of the Interstate Route H-1, Pearl City, Waimalu and Airport Viaduct Deck Improvements project. / Supplementary Notes: Prepared in cooperation with Hawaii State Dept. of Transportation, Honolulu. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
