摘要: |
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has initiated business plans to promote the Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O) program throughout the State. TSM&O is traditionally managed by traffic engineers that focus on optimizing efficiency and operations within a particular corridor utilizing common techniques such as re-timings and access modifications. With the emphasis moving towards maximizing current infrastructure, the Department envisions that the practice of managing TSM&O can be applied to all district units and disciplines for increasing efficiency. One main reason that the integration has stagnated is the lack of policies that support the integration of TSM&O strategies within the planning or design stages. This primer provides detailed guidance on how to apply TSM&O strategies from the planning stages to the construction phase of any general transportation project. TSM&O programs established around the nation are discussed to understand the current initiatives underway. A summary of the best practices for creating a robust and performance-based program is discussed. A detailed narrative highlighting the inclusion of all units within the TSM&O program is included. The report also provides background on financial programs that have the potential to provide funding for TSM&O programs. Continuous evaluation must be undertaken by the agency to ensure that the performance of the system is at an optimal level. Developing performance measures that accurately describe the objectives of the agency is critical to ensure that the plan is brought to practice. |
