TRB will conduct a webinar on Tuesday, July 10, 2018 from 2:00PM to 3:30PM ET that describes a method in which departments of transportation (DOTs) could manage their road networks in order to predict performance measures for Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21^st Century (MAP-21) and Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. MAP-21 and the FAST Act require state DOTs to establish and report targets for their pavement conditions. Presenters will discuss how agencies can use a pavement management system to predict the resulting MAP-21/FAST Act performance measures and suggest reasonable targets for these projections based on various scenarios.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Pavement Condition Evaluation. 

Some registrants will need to pay $95 to attend this webinar. Sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Describe how sectioning a network can affect the reporting of federal performance measures
• Use the agency’s current pavement management system to project federal performance measures at the 1/10^th mile level
• Discuss how this method is currently being implemented in other states
