Measuring the impacts and Performance of Transportation Resilience Efforts
Transportation agencies have increased their focus on incorporating resilience improvements to minimize the impact of disruptions. To make informed investment in resilience strategies, there is a need for tools and performance measures to track the progress toward improving system resilience. Having a consistent set of resilience performance measures (RPMs) will accelerate the cost-effective deployment of investments and the incorporation of resilience into standard practices. This interactive workshop will present a set of key RPMs for the opportunity to run table-top exercises providing the necessary data to assess the effectiveness of illustrative resilience strategies.
Jacobs Transportation Policy Advisor Melissa Savage will be participating in this workshop.
Monday – January 6 – 6:00PM – 8:00PM

Spotlight Session
What Is Happening to Our Workforce?: A State Department of Transportation Executive Conversation
Join Mara Campbell, Jacobs Vice President and Americas Highways & Bridges Market Director, for a discussion with State Department of Transportation executives about the changing workforce and innovative ways they are addressing these challenges in their agencies.
The transportation industry is facing a growing workforce shortage—especially within the public sector. Without a reliable pipeline of dedicated staff, these agencies could experience disruptions in the important work they do. Public transportation agencies face unprecedented challenges in preserving the workforce necessary to function effectively and need robust strategies to maintain workforce resiliency by recruiting and retaining quality staff to construct and maintain transportation infrastructure now and into the future. This Executive Conversation will provide an opportunity for attendees to hear directly from executives about how they approach the challenges and opportunities facing their workforce and their strategies to move forward.
Thursday, January 9 – 9:00AM – 12:00PM
Transportation Asset Risk and Resilience Strategies and Tools
The objective of this workshop is to share emerging tools and adaptation strategies to develop climate resilience in transportation asset management. Presentations will highlight the MHEVRA Tool to assess Georgia's transportation system vulnerability and risk (GDOT RP20-12) and also the ongoing NCHRP 23-32: Transportation Asset Risk and Resilience to develop a standard method for risk and resilience assessments. Participants will leave with science-based technical resources to assess risk and resilience in transportation planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance decisions.
Jacobs Global Principal for Resilience Aimee Flannery will be participating in this workshop.
