Topics

The use of performance measures and data informs transportation decision making. TRB hosted a webinar on Tuesday, July 21, 2020 from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM Eastern that provided an overview of Transportation Research Circular E-C263: Conference on Performance and Data in Transportation Decision Making. The e-Circular summarizes a conference from September 2019 that brought together practitioners involved in all aspects of transportation planning, programming, and the decision making process. This webinar discussed multimodal planning; performance and data; programming and investment prioritization; and communications and stakeholder engagement. Presenters identified implementation strategies and other initiatives throughout the transportation industry that help with decision making.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Transportation Planning Analysis and Application.

The recording is available.
