Georgia’s Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP) defines the condition of the state’s pavements and bridge structures, including culverts longer than 20 feet, on the National Highway System (NHS). This TAMP outlines the priorities and strategies used to cost effectively manage and preserve these assets over the next 10 years, deploying transportation asset management (TAM) and risk principles to make better data-based investment decisions in GDOT's existing infrastructure.

This publication documents the proceedings of the 71st Highway Geology Symposium held in 2022. A Geotechnical Asset Management Peer Exchange, "Obstacles and Opportunities Recognized Through Geotechnical Asset Management Implementation," was held. The Geotechnical Asset Management Subcommittee met for the following presentations: "North Carolina DOT’s Resiliency Program"; "Efforts to Quantify the Benefits of Implementing Resilience Measures for Geologic Hazards in Colorado"; "Observable effects on vulnerable highways: Examples from Alaska"; "Washington DOT Resiliency Efforts"; a summary of an FHWA peer exchange on resilience programs and their effects on asset management programs; and "Tools to understand asset inventory, condition, and threats to resilience."

In addition to satisfying a federal requirement, this TAMP serves as an important communication and accountability tool that will guide NDOT’s investments in pavement, bridge, and ITS preservation over 10 years. The TAMP summarizes the pavement, bridge, and ITS assets that NDOT maintains, providing information about the asset inventory and condition. In addition, the document describes the performance metrics that are used to monitor the performance of these assets. Using life cycle planning, the TAMP illustrates the cost-effectiveness of timely preservation activities and the costly consequences if these activities are deferred. In addition to costs, the TAMP considers the potential risks that NDOT faces while managing assets that continue to age and deteriorate in an unpredictable environment.

Pennsylvania’s Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP) outlines a 10-year strategy for managing the state’s pavements and bridges. The strategy includes setting goals and objectives, reporting the current conditions of assets, projecting conditions 10 years into the future, and providing a strategy for implementation of asset management into the project selection process. The TAMP also details life cycle planning, presents a financial plan, and discusses how to manage risk.

This policy brief describes the GHG Mitigation Measures Policy Directive adopted by the Transportation Commission for Colorado DOT in May 2022. The policy establishes ongoing processes for measuring, validating, and reporting GHG mitigation measures as set out in a December 2021 standard.

This report details the deployment of state-of-the-art technology for the inspection of highway infrastructure during construction and maintenance activities.

The updated 2022 Mississippi TAMP (further revised January 2023) outlines the guiding strategies for TAM efforts at MDOT. Under Managing Risk (chapter 5), MDOT's 2022 TAMP now includes a new section, "Risk in the TAMP", detailing MDOT's risk performance gap analysis efforts. Under Financial Plan (chapter 7), the 2022 TAMP includes a new section for "Overall Distribution of Revenue".

This textbook provides a framework for infrastructure asset management decision-making, including how data are used to build models and assessing the effectiveness of investments.

The 2022 TAMP is MDT's third TAMP. The 2022 update continues to support agency efforts in achieving short-term performance targets and making progress toward MDT’s vision for Interstate and Non-Interstate National Highway System (NHS) pavements and bridges. Considered is physical conditions, life-cycle planning analysis, investment scenarios and risks for pavements and bridges, a roadmap for future investment strategies, and expected levels of performance.
