Project Management and Tracking

• 2-pronged, quarterly tracking system in place– MS Project– Narrative, qualitative report

• Quarterly reporting structure– Universal template, Highlights, Challenges– Summary report per focus area per quarter

• Key highlights from first quarterly report – Example– Approaching milestone of 50000 trained in L12/32 TIM– Champions and opinion leaders identified for C06– Showcases, demos and workshops held for R04, R05, R09, R10

& R26

Implementation Assistance ProgramSo Far…• SHRP2 IAP projects underway in 48 states; more coming in round 4• Applications Received (Rounds 1-4): 414

– from 49 State DOTs + DC DOT– from 38 MPOs– from 10 tribes, 6 “others,” FHWA/FLH

• Awards (Rounds 1-3): 65 recipients received 146 awards (representing work on 180 projects*)

– 44 State DOTs + DC DOT– 16 MPOs– 1 tribe, 3 “others,” FHWA/FLH

• Beyond the IAP – successful implementation efforts ongoing in Traffic Incident Management (L12) – 41 states involved

• Thus, all 50 states + DC are engaged in SHRP2 implementation

We are listening…

Challenge Solution Result

Engage transportation agencies in every state

State visits; increased targeted outreach and communication; better time intervals throughout IAP; examination of widest potential audience

As of Round 4, all but 2 AASHTO member departments have applied through the IAP. MPOs, local DOTs, and others are also applying.

Connect customers and facilitate peer-to-peer knowledge transfer

Updated GoSHRP2 site features In the Field section; commitment to contributing to peer exchange; updated contact info on site

More availability of user data and stronger linkage of peer connections

Streamline the post-selection IAP activities

Use lessons learned to standardize process

Expectations are managed, funds are allocated more timely, and projects are initiated quicker
