It is the Texas Department of Transportation’s (TxDOT’s) mission to – though collaboration and leadership – deliver a safe, reliable, and integrated transportation system that enables the movement of people and goods. As population growth continues to outpace transportation capacity, the continuing challenge faced by TxDOT is one of making difficult investment decisions that balance the needs of transportation system users with the limited funding available to meet those needs. Performance-based transportation plans and programs developed by TxDOT, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality’s (TCEQ) Statewide Implementation Plan (SIP) guide the state and local planning and programming activities to ensure that the department develops results-oriented programs of projects that best address state, regional, and local transportation needs (Table 1).
