This guidebook presents an approach for integrating TSM&O strategies into the metropolitan transportation planning process that is designed to maximize the performance of the existing and planned transportation system. Planning for operations is recommended as a means to meet federal transpor
This document is a resource designed to enable transportation planners and their partners to build a transportation plan that includes operations objectives, performance measures, and strategies that are relevant to their region, that reflect the community’s values and constraints, and that move
TRB Transportation Research E-Circular E-C 150: Advancing Regional Transportation Operations: A National Workshop is a summary of the December 2008 workshop held in Washington, D.C. The purpose of the workshop was to advance the state of the practice in regional approaches to managing and oper
The intent of this document is to inform planners, operators, and other transportation systems management and operations (TSMO) practitioners on the use of scenario planning to advance TSMO, including why and when to use it and how to apply the phases of scenario planning to TSMO. This session wi
The purpose of this informational session is to provide you with a performance-based, integrated, and multimodal approach to planning for transportation systems management and operations, or TSMO, within corridors or subareas. The session will provide you with the kno

This document provides guidance to state and local transportation personnel who wish to develop a formal program for mitigating congestion using localized and lowcost bottleneck treatments. It presents several templates for developing a localized congestion mitigation program, including docu
FHWA’s Localized Bottleneck Reduction Initiative (LBR) program focuses attention on mitigating the operational causes of recurring congestion “hot spots” (i.e., traffic bottlenecks) at ramps, merges, lane drops, intersections, weaves, etc. One of the efforts of the LBR program is to encourage age
