Role of Planning in a 21st Century State Department of Transportation—Supporting Strategic Decisionmaking.

摘要

NCHRP Report 798 examines how the planning function in state departments of transportation (DOTs) can more effectively support strategic decisionmaking in the increasingly complex environments that state DOTs operate within. A self-assessment tool provides a thoughtful and methodical approach to identifying opportunities for increasing the value of planning as well as the skill sets and expertise that planning professionals need to realize that potential. The report should be of immediate use to DOT executives, senior planning managers, and educators.
