  • Abstract:
    The federal transportation reauthorization called

    Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act

    (MAP-21) creates a program that addresses many

    challenges facing the U.S. transportation system.

    These challenges include improving safety,

    maintaining infrastructure condition, improving

    effi ciency of the system and freight movement,

    protecting the environment, reducing project

    delivery delays, and reducing traffi c congestion.

    Regarding the reduction of traffi c congestion, the

    law charges USDOT to establish metrics by which

    to evaluate performance toward achieving

    transportation demand management (TDM) goals.

    However, the TDM industry lacks performance

    measures and standard data collection procedures

    to assess the effectiveness of service delivery.

    The industry also lacks a consistent method for

    calculating a wide range of societal benefi ts

    resulting from managing transportation demand.

    Consequently, without consistent methods to

    measure performance and to calculate benefi ts, it

    is not possible for the TDM community to

    demonstrate progress in reducing congestion so as

    to be considered for local, state or federal

    funding.
