  1. TransCOMM:Performance Management Overview Lloyd Brown and Matt Hardy June 19, 2013

  2. What is performance Management?

  3. Policy Driven Well-defined goals and objectives Performance-based Objectives can be translated into quantitative measures Analysis of Options and Tradeoffs Tools and data available to evaluate alternatives Decisions Based on Quality Information Decisions made using credible and current data Core Principles of Performance Management

  4. Performance Measures Performance Plans Target Setting Making Progress Sanctions Reporting MAP-21 Policy Areas

  5. Define a limited set of appropriate and credible performance measures Address six issues: Is the measure focused? Has it been developed in partnership? Is it maintainable to accommodate changes? Can it be used to support investment decisions, policy making and target setting? Can the measure be used to analyze performance trends? Has the feasibility and practicality to collect, store and report data been considered? Performance MeasuresKey Implementation Issues

  6. Develop Recommendations on National-level Performance Measures Develop Recommendations on Target Setting and Reporting Explore Communication Options SCOPM Activities

  7. Assist SCOPM and AASHTO recommend a limited number of national performance measures to meet MAP-21 requirements Including issues related to the recommended performance measures http://scopm.transportation.org Help prepare AASHTO members meet new Federal performance management requirements Develop strategies for communicating national performance measure reporting requirements Helping educate the general public on the need for transportation investment in our nation SCOPM Task Force Purpose

  8. There is a Difference—National-level performance measures are not necessarily the same performance measures State DOTs will use for planning and programming of transportation projects and funding. Specificity and Simplicity—National-level performance measures should follow the SMART and KISS principles: SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Timely KISS: Keep it Short and Simple Possession is 9/10ths of the Law—National-level performance measures should focus on areas and assets that States DOTs have control over. Overarching Principles

  9. Reduce and Re-use—The initial set of national-level performance measures should build upon existing performance measures, management practices, data sets and reporting processes. Ever Forward—National-level measures should be forward thinking to allow continued improvement over time. Communicate, Communicate, Communicate—Messaging the impact and meaning of the national-level measures to the public and other audiences is vital to the success of this initiative. Overarching Principles (cont.)

  10. Safety Recommended Measures • Number of Fatalities—Five-year moving average of the count of the number of fatalities on all public roads for a calendar year. • Fatality Rate—Five-year moving average of the Number of Fatalities divided by the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) for a calendar year. • Number of Serious Injuries—Five-year moving average of the count of the number of serious injuries on all public roads for a calendar year. • Serious Injury Rate—Five-year moving average of the Number of Serious Injuries divided by the Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) for a calendar year.

  11. Pavement Recommended Measures • Interstate Pavement in Good, Fair and Poor Condition based on the International Roughness Index (IRI)— Percentage of 0.1 mile segments of Interstate pavement mileage in good, fair and poor condition based on the following criteria: good if IRI<95, fair if IRI is between 95 and 170, and poor if IRI is greater than 170. • Non-Interstate NHS Pavement in Good, Fair and Poor Condition based on the International Roughness Index (IRI)— Percentage of .1 mile segments of non- Interstate NHS pavement mileage in good, fair and poor condition based on the following criteria: good if IRI<95, fair if IRI is between 95 and 170, and poor if IRI is greater than 170. • Pavement Structural Heath Index—Percentage of pavement which meet minimum criteria for pavement faulting, rutting and cracking.

  12. Bridge Recommended Measures • Percent of Deck Area on Structurally Deficient Bridges—NHS bridge deck area on structurally deficient bridges as a percentage of total NHS bridge deck area. • NHS Bridges in Good, Fair and Poor Condition based on Deck Area—Percentage of National Highway System bridges in good, fair and poor condition, weighted by deck area. The first measure is required in MAP-21 and AASHTO supports this as an initial measure. However, this measure could steer a State DOT to implement a worst-first approach for maintaining bridge condition. Therefore, AASHTO is exploring the second measure.

  13. System PerformanceInterstate and NHS Where must measures be established? Performance of the Interstate System<double blue line> Performance of the National Highway System (excluding the Interstate System)<red line>

  14. System PerformanceVirginia: Interstates (I-66)

  15. System PerformanceVirginia: NHS (Route 50)

  16. System PerformanceVirginia: Arterials Columbia Pike: Fairfax, VA Posted Speed Limit: 40 MPH Design Speed: 50 MPH Land Use: Low Density Columbia Pike: Arlington, VA Posted Speed Limit: 25 MPH Design Speed: 35 MPH Land Use: Medium Density

  17. System Performance Recommended Measures • Annual Hours of Delay (AHD)—Travel time above a congestion threshold (defined by State DOTs and MPOs) in units of vehicle -hours of delay on Interstate and NHS corridors. • Reliability Index (RI80)—The Reliability Index is defined as the ratio of the 80th percentile travel time to the agency-determined threshold travel time.

  18. Freight Recommended Measures • Annual Hours of Truck Delay (AHTD)—Travel time above the congestion threshold in units of vehicle-hours for trucks on the Interstate Highway System. • Truck Reliability Index (RI80)—The RI is defined as the ratio of the 80th percentile total truck travel time needed to ensure on-time arrival to the agency-determined threshold travel time (e.g., observed travel time or preferred travel time).

  19. CMAQ For purposes of carrying out section 149, the Secretary shall establish measures for States to use to assess: Traffic Congestion On-Road Mobile Source Emissions • Criteria Pollutant Emissions • VOC • Nox • PM • CO • Traffic Congestion • Annual Hours of Delay PerformanceMeasures CMAQPrograms & Projects Transportation Model

  20. CMAQ • On-road Mobile Source Emissions • Criteria Pollutant Emissions—Daily kilograms of on-road, mobile source criteria air pollutants (VOC, NOx, PM, CO) reduced by the latest annual program of CMAQ projects. • Traffic Congestion • Annual Hours of Delay (AHD)—Travel time above a congestion threshold (defined by State DOTs and MPOs) in units of vehicle -hours of delay reduced by the latest annual program of CMAQ projects. These measures apply only to MPOs that serve Transportation Management Areas (TMAs) with populations of over 1,000,000 and that are nonattainment or maintenance areas.

  21. Provide maximum flexibility Focus on what matters: the right outcome Align targets with system ownership and funding levels Base target setting on longer term trend data Coordinate target setting through a continuing, cooperative and comprehensive process Tell the story: performance is more than just a number Target Setting

  22. Avoid unachievable targets or the “one size fits all” approach Allow for appropriate timeliness for target achievement Guard against unintended consequences Complement flexibility in target setting with transparency and accountability Allow flexibility for DOTs and MPOs to use risk-based target setting approach Target Setting (continued)

  23. Held workshop on March 25 and 26 in Salt Lake City, UT Included SCOPM Task Force members and communications professionals Three objectives: Offer input to FHWA/U.S. DOT on communicating national performance information that is provided by the states; Develop guidance for the states on communicating national performance measures; and Identify a clear set of next steps to move the states’ agenda forward. See attached one-page summary for National Performance Measures Communications Issues CommunicationsWorkshop Overview
