Integrating performance-based plans and programs helps employees effectively attain performance goals while enhancing the efficiency of organizational planning processes. This webinar will highlight current practices for integrating federally required performance-based plans, such as Strategic Highway Safety Plans, Transportation Asset Management Plans, and freight plans with long-range transportation plans and state transportation improvement programs (STIPs).

Are you thinking of conducting research for TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program? This webinar will take a behind-the-scenes look at how ACRP project panels develop requests for proposals, evaluate proposal submissions, and select contractors.
Two significant advances have recently emerged in predicting the in-place strength of concrete for pavements and facilitating earlier opening of pavements. The first is the development of a new American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) maturity test method for pavements. The second is ASTM C1074, an advancement in sensor technology, which captures time and temperature data from the field. This webinar will inform agencies and practitioners of these new approaches.

Engineers are limited in their ability to adapt and mitigate asphalt pavements’ vulnerability to moisture damage. Climate models favor increased atmospheric moisture, adding urgency behind the need to understand effective countermeasures. This webinar will examine the current state of the knowledge and critical knowledge gaps with respect to asphalt pavement moisture damage.
As transportation technology evolves and agencies adopt new mobility services to meet changing market demands, ensuring equitable access and transportation options for all populations is critical.
