October 25 @ 5:30pm

Congestion Management

Speaker: Michael Grant

Principal, ICF International

Traffic congestion continues to challenge urban areas, resulting in wasted fuel, time, and costs to the economy. Efforts to address congestion in urban areas are one of the primary demands on transportation funding. The federally-required Congestion Management Process (CMP) for metropolitan areas with populations over 200,000 creates a solid framework for addressing congestion within the transportation planning process. While historically these efforts were often viewed simply as a data analysis exercise or report to identify capacity needs, the CMP is intended to be an on-going process, fully integrated into the metropolitan transportation planning process, addressing regional goals and objectives and multimodal system performance needs. In this session, Michael Grant of ICF International will discuss the new Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) guidebook on the CMP, highlighting key elements of the process, and the broader links between congestion management, livability, and multimodal system performance.
