The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act of 2012 (MAP-21) ushered in a performance-based approach to the Federal-Aid Highway Program. During the development of MAP-21 system performance measures (the third performance management rule, sometimes referred to as PM3 or 23 CFR 490.500-490.800), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) received thousands of comments, including some asking for multimodal measures that quantify person movements across all modes rather than vehicle movements. In response to these comments, FHWA completed the Multimodal System Performance Measures Research and Application study and produced an Innovation and Research Plan (FHWA-HOP-18-085). The fundamental finding of the research was that multimodal performance is difficult if not impossible to determine without complete person-trip information; i.e., data that tracks trips across the multimodal network from beginning to end. At the time of the original study, complete person-trip information was not available. Many years later, follow-on research completed by FHWA in the spring of 2022 found that complete person-trip data across all modes are now available from private vendors. Looking beyond performance measurement, the research also identifies potential applications for complete-trip data within transportation planning and management as well as operations.
