This AASHTO Member Webinar was held on July 14, 2022 in order to discuss the recently-released GHG NPRM.

This web-based workshop of the target setting series focuses on pavement condition target setting methods. Many of the methods used for bridge target setting are the same as those used for pavement; however, much of the data and considerations differ between the two. In this workshop, researchers present an overview of the methods used, discuss the challenges of each method, and provide stories and tips from state DOTs with experience in the area.

This is a workshop from the six-part series presenting the research project NCHRP 23-07: Guidebook on Effective Methods For Setting Transportation Performance Targets. Many agencies have been shifting to setting targets based on National Bridge Inventory Elements data due to recent changes in bridge data collection procedures. Some of the challenges in this area center around identifying data and aligning the target-setting process with project development times. In this webinar, researchers present bridge condition target setting methods including an overview of the current methods, challenges facing implementation, and the experiences of different state DOTs using scenario analysis to set targets.

This workshop on target setting methods covers effective methods for setting targets for non-SOV and peak hour excessive delay. These traffic congestion measures are defined for each designated urbanized area (UZA) specified by the US Census Bureau. A UZA is an area which contains an NHS road, has a population of over 1 million, and contains an area identified as non-attainment or maintenance for ozone, carbon monoxide, or any other particulate matter. The workshop comprises an overview of methods, examples of effective practice from Memphis MPO and the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, and a researcher-led discussion. It explores challenges related to coordinating on the UZA-level, identifying quality data, and considering investment impacts.

In this workshop, the NCHRP 23-07 research team share their findings setting travel time and freight reliability targets. This event includes an overview of the methods available and commonly used. It features discussion of the key challenges and considerations for these two performance areas, and two state DOTs (Iowa DOT and Virginia DOT), which took part in pilot studies for the guidebook, share their experiences with performance-risk analysis modeling.

This is the first episode of the target setting workshop series where presenters share target setting methods for safety performance measures covering fatal and serious crashes on all public roads. There are many challenges in in safety performance measurement. This webinar touches on several of them, including worsening performance, worsening targets, aligning targets across DOT plans, coordinating among state and local agencies, and accounting for non-motorized data in addition to automobile crashes. The methods presented in the webinar include targeted reduction, time-series trends, statistical models, and post-hoc adjustment methods. Speakers from Washington State DOT, South Carolina DOT, and Michigan DOT share their methods, tips, and tricks for setting safety targets and overcoming the challenges faced.

In this webinar, FHWA and AASHTO explore effective target setting and different target setting approaches. The webinar features presentations from Alexis Kuklenski and Walt Satterfield on the FHWA perspective, Matt Hardy on an analysis of AASHTO's 2- and 4-year targets, Anna Batista on the results of NCHRP Project 02-27: Making Targets Matter, and Michael Grant on the Guidebook: Effective Methods for Setting Transportation Performance Targets.

Many agencies have developed techniques and processes to make the most of TAM tools and advance TAM capabilities in their agencies. This webinar focused on techniques such as data visualizations, standard reports, asset data collection, consistency reporting, and TAMP implementation. Speakers include:
• Charles R. Lattimer, University of Maryland’s CATT Lab
• Matt Haubrich, Iowa DOT
• Sage Donaldson, Arizona DOT
• Joshua Lafond, New Hampshire DOT
• Michael Johnson, Caltrans

This webinar focuses on other tools that are being used and developed for TAM needs at transportation agencies. These tools include agency-developed tools as well as those developed through TRB, universities, and commercial vendors. Types of applications include multi-objective decision analysis, economic analysis, GIS, project bundling, prioritization, MPO target setting, and environmental analysis.

The second installment of the TAM Tools Miniseries, this webinar explores the asset management systems used and developed at transportation agencies. A variety of systems are presented by agency representatives, including integrated asset management systems, maintenance management, pavement management, and bridge management systems.

Featured Presentations:
Utah DOT ATOM - Kendall Draney, Utah DOT
AgileAssets at New Mexico DOT - Phillip Montoya, New Mexico DOT
Pennsylvania DOT BridgeCare and ProjectBuilder - Justin Bruner, Pennsylvania DOT
Use of AIMS models in CDOT TAM Budget Setting - Britton Stocks and Toby Manthey, Colorado DOT

This introductory session to the TAM Tools miniseries demonstrates how agencies can use the portals that AASHTO hosts to help with TAM needs. Webinar presenters highlight specific tools and applications available via the portals. This webinar also serves as an introduction to the topics covered in this webinar series.

Featured Presentations:
MnDOT TAM Communications Portal – Dave Solsrud, Minnesota DOT
TPM Portal Regional Exchange Toolbox – Matt Haubrich, Iowa DOT
MODAT – Multi-Objective Decision Analysis Tool – Bill Robert, Spy Pond Partners, LLC
TPM Portal Benchmarking Platform – Mark Egge, High Street Consulting
AASHTO Portal Overview – Matt Hardy, AASHTO

The March 31, 2022 joint meeting of the AASHTO Committee on Performance Based Management and the Transportation Performance Management Technical Service Program will provide an update on the progress of the committee and TSP.

In this webinar, FHWA and AASHTO present transportation equity, including its definition, its importance within transportation planning and management today, and how it could be measured using examples from Colorado DOT. Breakout group discussions comprise a portion of this webinar; however these are not included in the video. Please use this link to download a Word file with notes from the breakout groups. A summary of the findings from each breakout room are shared in the second half of the video.

This 53rd TAM webinar presented a variety of practical, real-world perspectives on current topics in asset management, with a focus on how states are developing their 2022 TAMPs. An expanded roster of featured speakers provided brief updates and highlights from their agencies’ active TAMP development efforts. The webinar featured a fast-paced format designed to share successful practices and develop common problem-solving approaches with the TAM community.

2022 TPM Research Symposium – Part I: Brainstorming Session with the Performance Management Community
This first part of the symposium focused on generating research ideas exploring all aspects of performance management, from infrastructure assets to organizational management to system mobility & emerging technologies.
