Abstract:On July 6, 2012, President Obama signed into law new highway legislation, the first long-term highway authorization enacted since 2005. That legislation, commonly known as the “Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act” (or MAP-21), funds transportation programs for fiscal years 2013 and 2014. In addition to providing funding, the legislation establishes a performance-based Federal highway program that focuses on national transportation goals, increases the accountability and transparency of the Federal highway programs, and supports the use of performance data to drive investment decision making. It also includes a requirement for States to develop “a risk-based asset management plan for the National Highway System to improve or preserve the condition of the assets and the performance of the system.” To provide guidance to State departments of transportation (DOTs) in meeting the MAP-21 requirements, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) initiated a pilot project to assist three state agencies with the development of their TAMP. The Minnesota DOT (MnDOT) is one of the three participating agencies, along with the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) and the New York State DOT (NYSDOT). This document outlines a plan for conducting the work required to develop the Department’s first formal TAMP. It is based on input from MnDOT’s Asset Management Steering Committee and Project Management Team (PMT), which include members from a broad cross-section of the Department and the FHWA.
