Federal Performance Measures

Transportation Performance Management (TPM) was established by Congress in the MAP-21 federal transportation bill. The intent is to use data to review the safety, condition, and performance of our transportation facilities, and use that to set goals, or “targets” for improving those facilities. The focus areas for collecting this data and setting targets include Safety (PM-1), Infrastructure Condition (PM-2), Congestion Reduction (PM-3), System Reliability (PM-3), Freight Movement and Economic Vitality (PM-3), Environmental Sustainability, and Reduced Project Delivery Delay.
