Backround:

FHWA is an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) with a mission to improve safety and mobility on our nation’s highways through national leadership, innovation, and program delivery. With continued growth in both traffic and freight volumes, significant portions of the transportation system experience congested conditions on a regular basis, leading to unreliable service to the American people. FHWA has engaged in broad activities in partnership with State and local transportation agencies to improve travel reliability and mitigate congestion. From a traffic flow standpoint, these activities include but are not limited to:

  • Real-time and forecasted information;
  • Measuring/monitoring passenger and freight system performance;
  • Analytical foundation/tools/data;
  • State of the art technologies and strategies, including operational tests of intelligent transportation system (ITS) technologies;
  • Development of standards for information exchange;
  • Guidance and funding for infrastructure and ITS projects;
  • Integration across system elements, jurisdictions, and modes; and
  • Assistance for transportation and planning professionals in developing the knowledge and skills needed to do their jobs effectively.

The objective of the requirement is to gain access to timely and quality travel time data, referred to as NPMRDS data, covering the National Highway System (NHS) and obtain technical support needed by Federal, State, and local agencies to carry out data application and data analysis related to Transportation Performance Management (TPM).
