The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) has developed its first Federal Highway Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP) to establish and document the agency’s strategic and systematic process of managing its transportation assets. This Highway TAMP was also developed to meet Federal requirements of Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) and the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. The penalty for not having a certified process results in a reduction of federal match from 80% or 90% to 65%. In Connecticut, this penalty could equate to approximately $100 million of additional State funds needed annually to utilize all federal dollars at the lower federal participation rate.
