Measures
Description: Federal and state
governments are increasingly looking toward performance measure to improve the
functioning of the transportation system and optimize their investment
strategies. How are beneficial cargo owners and carriers using performance
measures, what are applications for the public sector, and what are measures
the private side believes are important for the public sector? What does the

measures?

by the Federal Highway Administration, are held via web conference, which means
that you view the PowerPoint presentations over the Internet while listening to
the presenters over your computer or the telephone. There is no cost involved
and you do not have to leave your desk to participate. More information about
