Transportation Performance Management (TPM) provides a way to make visible progress in meeting agency objectives. TRB is hosting a webinar on Monday, March 30, from 2:00 to 3:30 PM Eastern that will present guidance for making effective use of data for Transportation Performance Management (TPM). The presenters will showcase how TPM can contribute to progress in reducing fatalities, improving asset condition, eliminating bottlenecks, and speeding up project delivery. They will also cover the full data life-cycle, from understanding data needs to using data to drive decision making. The webinar will also discuss the careful attention that needs to be applied to assessing data and implementation of proven data management practices.

This webinar draws on research from NCHRP Research Report 920: Management and Use of Data for Transportation Performance Management: Guide for Practitioners
