State transportation agencies are tasked with doing more to manage highway transportation networks with fewer staff. TRB is hosting a webinar on Tuesday, June 23, 2020 from 2:00 to 3:30 PM Eastern that will present guidance for addressing workforce challenges within the construction industry. Presenters will identify how agencies determine their construction staffing needs and will explain how to allocate their state or consultant engineering and inspection staff and resources to highway construction projects. The guidance provides 35 specific staffing strategies that may help alleviate construction staffing challenges.
This webinar draws on research from the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Research Report 923: Workforce Optimization Workbook for Transportation Construction Projects.
