A financial plan is a required element of the TAMP. How well the financial plan is integrated with other elements of the TAMP can provide an indication of an agency’s TAM maturity. Financial planning advanced between the 2018 and 2019 TAMPs and more progress is anticipated in the next rounds. Resources have been developed through FHWA and TRB to support financial plans – and more resources are currently under development. This webinar will share some of the advancements in financial planning at transportation agencies and highlight new and upcoming resources to assist agencies in improving their TAM financial plans.

Risk management and building resiliency is of growing importance for transportation agencies and is an integral part of an agency’s TAMP. The 2018 and 2019 TAMPs were required to be risk-based and include a risk register. In many of the initial TAMPs, agencies were early in their understanding of risk management in the context of transportation asset management (TAM). Agencies will have the opportunity to improve their risk management and resiliency elements of their next TAMPs as they have improved their understanding and practices related to TAM and risk management/resiliency. This webinar features discussion from DOTs on how they have used their initial TAMP risk registers and how they plan to enhance their risk registers and risk management and resiliency building processes in their updated TAMPs.

This webinar kicked-off the Improving Your Next TAMP Miniseries. The next cycle of TAMP development is around the corner and agencies need to figure out how they will develop their next TAMP. The purpose of the miniseries is to take a deeper dive into this topic of potential TAMP enhancements and help to provide knowledge, inspiration, and capacity to build a better TAMP.

This first installment focused on the findings of a recent set of FHWA TAM case studies. The case study subject—PennDOT—discussed the case study findings, reflecting on the agency’s 2019 TAMP and plans for their next TAMP.

Webinar video recording and presentation slides are available at: https://old.tam-portal.com/resource/tam-webinar-46/.

This webinar will use an interactive format to get your input on what is most needed to improve your next TAMP. Polls will assess the audience’s opinions in real-time on a variety of topics related to the next TAMP and address topics including: the areas that most need improvement, elements of the TAMP that most help agencies, areas where additional resources are most needed, and what those resources are. The polls will be complemented by an interactive discussion with the facilitators and participants. A summary of the federal requirements and an overview of available resources will also be presented.

The NACo Legislative Conference, held annually in Washington, D.C., brings together over 2,000 elected and appointed county officials to focus on federal policy issues that impact counties and our residents. The 2018 Legislative Conference is a can’t-miss opportunity to elevate the county voice at the national level. Attendees will participate in second-to-none educational sessions, interact with federal officials and descend on Capitol Hill, delivering the message that federal policies matter to counties and counties matter to America!Register here.

The Legislative Conference educates members on important federal legislation and policy initiatives; provides members with the opportunity to shape future industry positions and federal transportation policy; provides direction on the industry’s legislative strategy and advocacy efforts with the U.S. Congress and executive branch; and offers sessions with key members of Congress, Administration officials, staffers and Washington opinion makers.

During the 2017 meeting, APTA members visited hundreds of Congressional offices to advocate for fully funding federal public transportation programs authorized in the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, addressing the long-term solvency of the Highway Trust Fund in tax reform legislation, and fulfilling campaign promises for a new infrastructure initiative. These issues remain at the forefront of the legislative agenda, and with only a year left until the 2018 mid-term Congressional elections, now is the time to make our voices heard in Washington and push our priorities over the finish line.

Previous speakers from the Executive Branch have included Secretaries of the Department of Transportation and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Administrators. Key Congressional leaders have also participated in previous conferences, including Senate Banking Committee Ranking Democrat Senator Sherrod Brown, House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Ranking Member Rep. Peter DeFazio, House Subcommittee on Highways and Transit Chairman Rep. Sam Graves, Senator Dean Heller, Rep. Earl Blumenauer, Rep. John Delaney, Rep. Hank Johnson, Rep. Seth Moulton, and senior Congressional staff.Register here.

WTS International is hosting its 2018 annual conference, “Driving the Waves of Change,” in San Diego, California, May 16 – 18, 2018! San Diego boasts a diverse economy supported by international trade, manufacturing, military, biotechnology, and tourism. Its mild and sunny year-round climate makes it an ideal location to foster a wide range of transportation sectors; rail, aviation, construction, freight, transit, and active transportation all play a vital role in the daily operation of this thriving coastal city. San Diego also serves as a great place to discuss the future of transportation and the meaningful impact of women working in the field. During this interactive, three-day session, transportation leaders will exchange ideas and learn about the latest developments in the industry. More than 700 corporate and governmental transportation leaders worldwide will be in attendance, and a multitude of thoughtful and engaging topics will be covered. Register here.

The 2018 Summit on “Transport Safety and Security” will address issues ranging from terrorism and cyber-security to road safety and extreme weather disruption, including the risks and benefits of automated driving. Safety and security are core concerns for transport. A transport system that is safe and secure enables passengers to travel without fear and allows businesses to ship goods reliably and efficiently. Enhancing transport safety and security is also an essential element in the implementation of two major international agreements, the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Climate Agreement.Register here.

The Future of Transportation is a study and conference on the subject of What Next. One of our core themes is ‘Getting Transportation Off the Ground’, in which we will examine how quickly personal airborne transportation systems will become viable mass transportation. The futuristic vision of skyscrapers surrounded by airborne transport for mass commuting could be just a few years away, but are the world’s governments and existing transport providers and operators sizing themselves up for the change? Will today’s automotive companies with brands that rank continuously among the world’s leading names be lost in history or will they – as, for example, Mercedes has long stated – be part of the new transport solution?
The Future of Transportation World Conference will bring together world transportation leaders from automotive manufacturers and their suppliers, transportation authorities and city planners, rail and public transportation technology firms and operators, technology and software giants, drone and personal air transportation solution companies, freight and logistics companies, mass-transit solution providers, business consultants, and inventors of new and disruptive global mobility solutions, all with the common goal of devising better solutions for the increasingly demanding challenge of providing safe, efficient, sustainable transportation for the world in 2030 and beyond.Register here.
