This plan considers the current trends, the priorities of Iowa DOT, and the condition of the system to formulate a set of strategies and improvements to guide Iowa's transportation investment through 2045. It also includes an analysis of the funding needs and challenges facing transportation in Iowa, and it describes how the state plans to monitor their performance.

The Nevada long range plan establishes a framework for making informed decisions around transportation investment for Nevada's metropolitan planning organizations, regional transportation commissions, local governments, modal transportation providers, and NDOT. It supports six goal areas which include enhancing safety, preserving infrastructure, optimizing mobility, transforming economies, fostering sustainability, and connecting communities. This plan was first published in 2018 and received minor updates in 2020 to reflect the wishes of the new administration.

This research report presents a snapshot of the trends facing public transportation and tested strategies for counteracting transit ridership decreases. The research method includes a literature review, analysis of current transit ridership levels, and ten case studies.

This publication examines the use and integration of GIS into the asset management practices of local Minnesota transportation agencies and provides recommendations and case studies for agencies at differing stages of implementation.

This guide covers all aspects of consolidated asset management for smaller groups, from getting started with the approach to an overview of software programs, the benefits of life-cycle cost analysis, and the need for risk management. More specifically, this guide provides guidance in developing an asset inventory and condition assessment, establishing performance measures and goals, identifying and rating risk, determining lifecycle planning and funding strategies, and creating asset management plans and programs using existing and new resources.

This report summarizes the proceedings of the 2019 Transportation Performance Management (TPM) Peer Exchange sponsored by the Transportation Performance Management Pooled Fund, led by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (DOT). The peer exchange was held in St. Paul, Minnesota on November 14-15, 2019 and focused on how transportation agencies are implementing TPM in light of federal requirements and advancing TPM and performance-based planning and programming (PBPP) practice. The purpose of the peer exchange was to provide participants an opportunity to share their experiences implementing TPM and to discuss related best practices, including how to resource and align their internal performance management systems with federal requirements. They also discussed current communication challenges and the future of TPM. The primary goal of this peer exchange was to advance the state of the TPM practice, particularly by sharing lessons learned.

As the public transit landscape continues to become more and more data-centric, the importance of data-sharing decisions also increases. This report aims to help transit agencies make decisions about data sharing by outlining how agencies can evaluate the benefits, costs, and risks of sharing data. In producing this report, the research team completed interviews with transit agencies; their results are featured throughout the report.

NCHRP Report 750 "Strategic Issues Facing Transportation, Volume 7: Preservation, Maintenance, and Renewal of Highway Infrastructure" analyzes highway infrastructure from a long-term perspective. New innovations and technologies continue to shift the forecast for the transportation industry in the next 30 to 50 years. This report aims to help agencies prepare for those possible futures with performance management best practices.

The 4th Edition of the TSMO Performance Report features several analyses and data comparisons of Pennsylvania transportation system performance data gathered in the four years prior to 2020. Most prominently, the report features a state-specific congestion pie chart. Several new data comparisons are included in this edition as well.

The Iowa Transportation Asset Management Implementation Plan defines Iowa DOT's implementation strategies to achieve asset management objectives and goals for the years 2020 to 2025. After the introduction, the document features three main sections covering the agency's TAM vision and goals, their existing TAM practices, and their implementation work plan, by which they lay out each of the steps and action needed to advance their TAM practice.

AASHTO Transportation Asset Management Guide presents a comprehensive introduction to asset management concepts and practices. The guide is intended to foster understanding of asset management techniques and advance asset management practices at transportation agencies. Read more at: https://www.tamguide.com.

This report is Part C of NCHRP Report 750. Part C focuses specifically on stimulating interest among transportation agency leaders in emerging highway infrastructure practices.
