The turbo roundabout was invented in the Netherlands in 1996, with the initial design guidelines developed by the Dutch Information and Technology Platform. The term “turbo” is descriptive of the spiral geometry utilized and not the speed of cars traveling through the roundabout (see figure 1). In fact, speeds are significantly reduced in a turbo r

This case study highlights a noteworthy example by the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) as the State focuses on the quality of its linear referencing system (LRS). ADOT uses the LRS as the system of record to help manage and integrate datasets between several units and data owners in the agency. ADOT developed a framework for identifying

The RDR Tool Suite enables transportation agencies to assess transportation resilience return on investment (ROI) for specific transportation assets over a range of potential future conditions and hazard scenarios, which can then be used as a consideration in existing project prioritization processes. The tool suite utilizes established Robust Deci

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) recently implemented a policy that will allow State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) to use Federal-aid funds in innovative long-term contracts with private developers. In such agreements, the State grants exclusive rights (a "concession") to a developer - concessionaire - who assumes responsibility for

Under a Public-Private Partnership (P3) for highway projects, a private partner participate in a long-term contract involving some combination of design, construction, financing, operations, and maintenance, including collection of toll revenues.
The use of Public-Private Partnerships (P3s) marks a shift away from traditional ways of procuring and financing highway projects. Under traditional procurement processes, private contractors construct projects based on a public design using public funding. The projects are then operated and maintained by public agencies. With the P3 model, a priva
