Rhode Island Statewide Planning Program MPO Peer Exchange, Providence, RI - September 2008
Participating Agencies: Capital District Transportation Committee, Rhode Island Statewide Planning Program
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) invited a local Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) expert, Christopher O’Neill, from the Capital District Transportation Committee (CDTC), to the Advancing Management and Operations (M&O) and the Congestion Management Process (CMP) in Metropolitan Transportation Planning Workshop. This one-day workshop aims to equip senior planners and operations managers from MPOs, State Departments of Transportation, transit agencies, and local operating agencies to lead transitions toward an objectives-driven, performance-based approach in their regions, in accordance with Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) in advancing planning for operations. Mr. O’Neill provided a local user-perspective on how to incorporate an objectives-driven, performance-based approach into how M & O are considered in the transportation planning process. Mr. O’Neill discussed how CDTC can incorporate the philosophies contained in M & O and the CMP into creating stronger linkages between operations and the planning process.
