1 SHRP2 – Tools for the road ahead Implementation Overview
Carin Michel, FHWA SHRP2 Implementation Manager Pam Hutton, AASHTO SHRP2 Implementation Manager 25 July 2016

2 SHRP2 projects nationwide
SHRP2 at a Glance SHRP2 Solutions – 63 products Solution Development – processes, software, testing procedures, and specifications Field Testing – refined in the field Implementation – More than 430 transportation projects; adopt as standard practice 430 SHRP2 projects nationwide 2

3 Focus Areas Safety: fostering safer driving through analysis of driver, roadway, and vehicle factors in crashes, near crashes, and ordinary driving Renewal: rapid maintenance and repair of deteriorating infrastructure using already-available resources, innovations, and technologies Reliability: reducing congestion and creating more predictable travel times through better operations Capacity: planning and designing a highway system that offers minimum disruption and meets the environmental and economic needs of the community

4 Implementing SHRP2 Solutions
From 100+ research projects to 60+ implementable products Diverse users from across the industry Product deployment supported with technical and financial assistance Implementation Assistance Program designed to integrated SHRP2 products into current transportation practices Extensive evaluation effort underway SHRP2 Education Connection

5 SHRP2 Implementation Assistance Program
Round 7: 13 products or bundles of products 1 capacity; 3 reliability; 9 renewal products 42 recipients just announced in June 2016 - 37 state DOTs - 4 MPOs 1 Federal Lands Highway 79 projects in 37 states 5

6 SHRP2 Implementation: Moving Us Forward

7 SHRP2 Implementation: Moving Us Forward
As of November 2015: 7

8 What’s Next? Evaluation Education Connection Product future…
Product level Program level Education Connection Maximizing the results of round 1 Planning for round 2 Product future… Determining the best home for the products Planning for post IAP product support

9 SHRP2 in the Field 430+ projects underway across the country Why?
Strong Implementation Planning Implementation Assistance Program Focused Communications and Materials Outreach to States Through Conferences and Meetings Implementation Funding Organizational Support (including additional technical assistance) Credibility of the program, with the AASHTO/FHWA partnership

10 Some Exciting Examples

11 Railroad-DOT Mitigation Strategies
Railroad-DOT (R16) Product 7 model documents Compilation of best practices Facilitated workshops and training Community of Interest Benefits Fewer project delays Reduced planning costs Safer projects and work zones More streamlined processes Better coordination and cooperation Less risk! 11

12 Florida Implementation
FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 Florida Implementation Flagging Agreement Flagging Agreement with CSX Best practices identified CSX flagmen paid by FLDOT on demand/whenever needed Results Savings of approximately $200,000 Example FDOT construction project with railroad impacts – SR60 to I-4 Connector

13 TxDOT Model and Approach
TxDOT internal streamlined practices: Streamlined the Union Pacific Railroad Agreements Electronic submittals of agreements to the various railroads. Railroads can quickly load it into their agreement management system and obtain internal approvals. Tracks agreements sent to the railroad representative. Railroads cam quickly upload the agreement and do their legal/other reviews. Results Reduced railroad agreement processing from 16+ weeks to as little as 4-6 weeks when using standard format agreements. Reduced simple maintenance agreements (2/3 of our State projects) from 2-3 month turnaround to less than 1 month.

14 Freight Modeling and Data Improvement (C20)
C20 Offers: Documentation and data required for effective freight modeling, data collection, and decision making. A strategic plan to advance improvements in freight planning; promote continuous innovation; and foster a collaboration between all stakeholders. Benefits: Gives freight planners and decision makers tools and data to consistently evaluate projects that affect freight movement. Helps state, regional, and local planners better predict movement trends and make informed project investment decisions. 10

15 Winston-Salem Urban Area MPO C20 Project
FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 Winston-Salem Urban Area MPO C20 Project Launched local data pilot to: Identify key freight nodes in the region. Collect survey data to better understand key attributes and trip making characteristics of regional freight facilities. Project was first phase of a three-phased plan to develop an enhanced freight component for the Piedmont Triad Regional Model.

16 Resulted in Valuable Data
FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 Resulted in Valuable Data Results of pilot, completed in June 2015: Data now available that can be used to inform land use planning, transportation planning, and project prioritization from the standpoint of freight. Lessons learned: Identified methodology for delivering the survey and collecting data from the freight agencies. “We learned a valuable lesson; don’t start with a design objective, start with a communications objective. Our project became a success after we found various ways to communicate with the freight industry.” – Fredrick Haith, Transportation Engineer, Winston-Salem

17 Technologies to Enhance Quality Control on Asphalt Pavements
FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 Technologies to Enhance Quality Control on Asphalt Pavements Problem: Thermal streaks can be very damaging, depending on the level of density achieved in localized areas. Can lead to longitudinal and centerline segregation, overall poor asphalt quality SHRP2 Solutions – R06C Infrared Thermography: Scanners attached to pavers enable real-time readings while paving is occurring. Ground-Penetrating Radar uses E-M waves detect objects and determine distance from the object

18 FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 Who Is Using IR? Alaska – included IR in specifications for two pilot projects this summer; using incentive/disincentives. Missouri – Letting a project this summer, again with incentives/disincentives. Alabama – Draft specifications on one project. Minnesota and Texas – Using IR in all specs. Michigan – Went to the MoDOT showcase and now is planning a workshop for their staff and industry folks. Testing at Anchorage Airport Project

19 GPR in Testing Phase Recent Nebraska Test 30 NEDOT staff participated
Night field demonstration on Highway 2 – urban 4-lane arterial closed for this work NEDOT was putting down a 2-inch overlay with 50% RAP from the millings on the project  Benefits: Provides feedback during paving operations to maximize performance Enables DOTs to evaluate innovative construction methods Minimizes need for coring Can “see” 200 ft on both sides of a longitudinal joint

20 National TIM Responder Training Program
FDOT SHRP2 Solutions 5/25/2016 National TIM Responder Training Program The National Traffic Incident Management (TIM) Responder Training program trains teams of responders to work together in a coordinated manner through a set of practices and advanced standards. Enables safer and faster clearance of traffic crashes. Teams of responders learn to use safer and more-effective on-scene techniques. Numerous reports from across the country of its effectiveness in the field.

21 Nearly 200,000 Trained! 196,083 Total Trained as of July 2016 2,214
NH: 1,752 Canada: 186 2,214 VT: 1,027 758 2,559 1,151 MA: 2,295 1,729 3,553 512 1,898 5,563 3,064 RI: 1,165 1,192 4,509 1,773 6,542 NJ: 7,839 CT: 793 6,415 3,203 4,257 13,183 847 8,799 2,026 DE: 331 3,440 13,040 MD: 3,356 2,165 7,461 4,402 14,873 3,367 8,972 DC: 2,104 4,169 3,082 369 294 2,334 3,554 729 1,557 3,710 13,550 353 Mexico: 397 5,243 259 2,168 196,083 Total Trained as of July 2016

22 What’s Coming Up? Ongoing Safety Research in Phase 2 – Eight states and nine teams working on critical issues – Findings expected in Spring 2017 Presentations at AASHTO Committees throughout the summer MAASTO – MoDOT on Pavements SASHTO – FLDOT on Safety; TxDOT on Rail/DOT Mitigation Strategies (R16); ALDOT on Pavements Showcase on NDT for Tunnel Linings (R06G) – September 2016 Showcase on Pavement Delamination (R06D) and Fingerprinting Construction Materials (R06B) – Late Fall 2016 Peer exchange on Performance Specs (R07) – September 2016
