Local Efficiency Study • Sample 30-35 Local Highway jurisdictions • Adjust average costs to reflect regional differences and local standards • Calculate 1/20th of paved miles for each of the study jurisdictions • Develop a matrix that lists OPR projects and the number of miles completed for each jurisdiction • Prepare case studies to explain why jurisdictions achieved their results • Develop a list of the options that might be further evaluated for possible improvements in efficiency and cost effectiveness LHTAC
Local Highway Efficiency Summit • Held in September or October • Invite legislators and highway officials from cities, counties and highway districts • Organize sessions to discuss ways to improve efficiency • Joint agreement procedures • Shared purchasing and equipment options • Personnel and training LHTAC
