Reauthorization !!!!! • Credibility and Accountability of Transportation Departments---System Safety and Reliability and Project Delivery on Time/Budget – Performance Metrics • Future Transportation Workforce • System Preservation/Operation/Expansion • Congestion/Mobility/Safety/Global Warming
SCOH Strategic Plan Guide SCOH for next four years 2010 – 2014 Capture important issues since 1998 Two Overarching Objectives relate to: Technical Services Governance Issues Ten Specific Objectives:
SCOH Strategic Plan • Ten Specific Objectives • Cut fatalities in half by 2030 • Congestion free America • System Preservation • Project Delivery • Freight • Performance Management • Workforce Planning and Development • Research and Emerging Technology • Climate Change • Communicating the Value of Transportation
Cut fatalities in half by 2030 Highway safety is a major public health challenge, 37,261 fatalities 2008. All crashes - $230.6 B/yr; 2.3% GNP Vision of TZD Lead by SCOHTS; however other leads: SSOM in conj also w NTIMC and NUG 20-7(282) Research needs assessment for roadside workers and vehicle safety ITS and IntelliDrive: V2I, significant focus V2V
Congestion free America $87.2 B drain on economy, 4.2 B hrs in traffic congestion SSOM lead focus Also in conjunction w NTOC and NTIMC NUG 3-94 Operations Guide 20-7(298) CoE for Operations SHRP2 Reliability and L17 - KTN
