Abstract

This report compiles and documents public agency practices used in federal-aid project development and management. A primary objective of this study is to explore what perfor-mance measures, delivery practices, strategies, and tools are currently used in relation to federally-funded local public agency (LPA) highway project development and delivery, and how they are used to measure success in project administration. The report also provides information on the definition and elements of DOT-sponsored LPA certification processes. Information used in this study was acquired through a review of the literature, a survey of DOT local program representatives in all states, and a survey of local program agency representatives identified by DOTs. Follow-up interviews with multiple state and local agency representatives provided additional information.
