Transportation Performance Management

 

How Is TPM Being Implemented?

The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), signed into law in 2012, included several provisions that collectively are transforming the Federal surface transportation program to be focused on the achievement of performance outcomes.

The performance outcomes provisions, administered by different agencies within the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), were implemented by rulemakings, including several under FHWA's purview. The provisions are organized by six performance management elements.

The Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, signed in 2015, built on the MAP-21 changes and provided long-term funding certainty for surface transportation infrastructure planning and investment.

TPM performance management outcomes are grouped into six elements to more effectively communicate the efforts under way to implement the statutory requirements.
