A vision needs implementation to be successful. NCHRP 20-24(138) also identified a series of individual and collective actions state DOTs and their partners could undertake to advance a national transportation vision, including initial concepts for “moonshots” during this decade. This session will share the initial recommendations from this project and gather input on how AASHTO […]

Virginia is in its fifth round of using the SMART SCALE prioritization process to screen and score transportation projects of any mode. Join this session to learn how the multimodal evaluation process addresses safety, congestion, accessibility, economic development, environmental quality, and land use. We’ll also take a deeper dive into how VDOT has used accessibility […]
