| 摘要： | The federal-aid highway program provides over $25 billion a year to states for highway and bridge projects, often paying 80 percent of these projects costs. The federal government provides funding for and oversees this program, while states largely choose and manage the projects. Ensuring that states effectively control the cost and schedule performance of these projects is essential to ensuring that federal funds are used efficiently. We reviewed the Federal Highway Administrations (FHWA) approach to improving its federal-aid highway project oversight efforts since we last reported on it in 2002, including (1) FHWAs oversight related goals and performance measures, (2) FHWAs oversight improvement activities, (3) challenges FHWA faces in improving project oversight, and (4) best practices for project oversight. GAO recommends that FHWA link its activities and staff expectations to its oversight goals and measures, develop an overall plan for its oversight activities tied to goals and measures and supported in workforce plans, define the role of project managers, and develop the capability to track project costs to identify problems and transfer lessons learned. DOT generally agreed with this reports facts and conclusions. / NOTE:Report to the Congress. |
