Book excerpt: This report summarizes the efforts and progress made to date by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and focuses specifically on the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) implementation of important financing initiatives in President Clinton's Executive Order 12893 of January 26, 1994. The purpose of the Executive Order is to enhance existing programs and to develop more effective investment in infrastructure. FHWA established the "Innovative Financing--Test and Evaluation Project (TE-045)" in order to identify existing transportation financing barriers and to advance innovative financing mechanisms that would increase highway investment. The initiative asks State and local governments to identify specific projects which could be advanced through new ways of financing.

This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) provides about $40 billion to the states annually to build and maintain highways and bridges through the federal-aid highway program. While this program has grown and changed over time, the federal-state relationship has been consistently one of "partnership" since 1916. DOT's FHWA has offices in all 50 states that have developed close working relationships with states. Legislation approved by the Senate in March 2012 would establish a more performance-based highway program, introducing performance measures for highways and bridges and requiring FHWA to monitor states' progress in meeting those measures. As requested, GAO examined (1) how the federal-aid highway program and FHWA's oversight have changed over time; (2) the extent to which FHWA's partnership approach produces benefits; (3) the extent to which FHWA's partnership approach poses risks; and (4) how FHWA's partnership with state DOTs could affect a transition toward a performance-based highway program. To do this work, GAO conducted site visits and a survey, reviewed relevant documentation, and interviewed FHWA and state officials. "

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), in striving to meet the Nation's need for the safe, efficient, and environmentally sound transport of people and goods, is continuing to work toward the creation and nurturing of leveraging partnerships. Closer collaboration between Federal, State, and local entities improves communication and cohesion between the organizations. The formation of the partnerships also creates powerful potential for the broad public-private interest alliances to establish agendas that further benefit the highway community. However, the ultimate benefit of the FHWA's partnering ventures is advancement toward better, safer roads at the lowest cost possible. This booklet contains descriptions of partnerships that exemplify these benefits.

GAO reviewed federal legislation, interviewed federal, state, and other officials, and reviewed the experience of Australia, Canada, and Spain.
