Summary State DOT Practices for Developing and Implementing TSMO Plans

Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) programs include elements of operations, planning, design, construction, maintenance, and safety. They are frequently complex and cross jurisdictional boundaries, involving traditional state departments of transportation (DOTs), local DOTs, and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs), along with disruptive technology markets.

The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's NCHRP Synthesis 567: Summary State DOT Practices for Developing and Implementing TSMO Plans documents current practices used by state DOTs related to the development and implementation of TSMO plans from state DOTs and MPOs. The study develops an overview of the current state of TSMO plan development and methodology.
