Introduction
Over the past several decades, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) have focused on using data to improve decisions related to transportation investments. Whether maintenance, safety or operations focused, the FHWA has leveraged limited resources and targeted important projects to address needs that often times outstrip available funding. This focused approach has also carried over to the State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) to improve safety and mobility across the country.
