• Abstract:
  Transportation system management and operations (M&O) coordinates systems to make them more efficient, more convenient, more reliable, safer, and easier to use. M&O strategies make systems work better, allowing us to do more with less – less congestion, less money, less fuel, and less frustration. They support livability by increasing travel choices and efficiency—including transit, bicycling, and walking—while reducing emissions and resource use. It can be frustrating to sit in traffic, inconvenient to use transit when you do not know when the next bus is coming or where it goes, and downright dangerous to walk or bike in some places. How the transportation system is operated and managed can help address these problems and provide safe, reliable, and timely access to jobs, services, housing, and schools, and expand business access to markets.
