WEBINAR: What Happens Now? Virtual Public Engagement During and Beyond Covid-19 DESCRIPTION:Join the NJDOT Bureau of Research for the Lunchtime Tech Talk! WEBINAR: What Happens Now? Virtual Public Engagement During and Beyond Covid-19 on October 6th\, 2021.\nThis webinar will focus on virtual public involvement (VPI) both during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic\, when DOTs\, MPOs and other local public agencies were confronted with the need to adapt to virtual platforms to engage with the public for transportation plans\, projects and other activities. VPI has flourished during the pandemic and will likely continue post pandemic\, offering several benefits including increased participation from some members of the public. However\, implementing effective VPI can pose some challenges\, such as ensuring involvement from underserved communities. \nPanelists from within and outside New Jersey will discuss their experiences engaging the public virtually during the pandemic; share challenges encountered and solutions; offer benefits of using VPI; detail strategies to reach underserved and underrepresented communities through VPI; and outline plans for continuing use of VPI post-pandemic. \nINVITED SPEAKERS \n * Andrea Lubin & Trish Sanchez\, Rutgers-Voorhees Transportation Center\, Public Outreach and Engagement Team\n * Rickie Clark\, Transportation Specialist\, FHWA\n * Jamille Robbins\, Community Studies & Visualization Group\, Leader\, North Carolina DOT Public Involvement\n * Alison Hastings\, Associate Director\, Communications\, Delaware Valley Regional Plan Commission\n * Vanessa Holman\, Deputy Chief of Staff\, NJDOT\n * Megan Fackler\, Director of Government and Community Relations\, NJDOT \nREGISTRATION INFO \nThe event is free\, but registration is required to receive the URL link to the webinar.

These are linked to the business case for a value capture technique through the allocation of costs and risks. This chapter explains how policy makers at the State and local level can achieve alignment of their policy objectives with the business and financial case for value capture techniques. It also discusses how this process can be enhanced through involving stakeholders in the planning process. Making the business and economic case for value capture to generate new funding for transportation infrastructure projects and programs is ultimately about establishing a clear and direct nexus between the transportation projects and real estate developments that emerge or benefit from transportation project investments. To maximize VC monetization potential\, an effective VC strategy is to start early during project planning and public involvement phases and well in advance of right-of-way acquisition and project procurement. Making the VC business case is also about developing a strategy to strengthen and preserve the VC negotiating leverage with developers early in the planning stage FHWA will roll out the Value Capture Strategies: Making the Business and Economic Case —A Primer designed to demonstrate how local and regional agencies tasked with providing infrastructure can make the business and economic (B/E) case for using one or more VC techniques to address increasing funding challenges. The objective is to build capacity of understanding Value Capture Strategies\, for consideration and implementation of revenue options\, and value capture tools as part of a mix of funding and financing strategies in long-range plans. The webinar features experts discussing best practices and reviewing case studies for building the case for value capture. Registration is free but is limited\, register now to reserve your space!

Head-ons\, rollovers and tree crashes account for over three-quarters of these fatalities. Curves are over-represented for all 3 of these crash types.\nThis webinar will focus on how several agencies are addressing curves within their jurisdictions by enhancing curves with signing and striping to reduce roadway departures. \nState\, local\, and tribal stakeholders – come and learn how you can address curves to reduce rural roadway departures and save the people behind the numbers. \nPresenters and Topics: \n· Pamela Blazo\, Michigan DOT will present on Michigan’s Streamlined Systemic Application that was created to promote the installation of enhanced curve signing on the local roadway network. The presentation will highlight a few local agency projects recently implemented. \n· Matt Mulder\, Bonner County\, Idaho will present on Bonner County’s effort to install edge lines and retroreflective delineators through curves on numerous roads as a project to address roadway departures. \n· Paul Fontecchio\, Brown County\, Wisconsin will present on Brown County\, Wisconsin’s safety improvements made on rural county highway curves as part of the County’s Road Safety Plan. \nRegistration: Participants must register in advance at https://connectdot.connectsolutions.com/e3ter2zqjocr/event/registration.html https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https:%2F%2Fconnectdot.connectsolutions.com%2Fe3ter2zqjocr%2Fevent%2Fregistration.html&data=04%7C01%7Cdavid.aimen%40ejb.rutgers.edu%7Cf2c7478108c04501d89d08d9784f9926%7Cb92d2b234d35447093ff69aca6632ffe%7C1%7C0%7C637673106294435552%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=pYFIcjKAbmjzL6CrmLl2xXXDqkQ7cqjq2fASPi7D%2FQY%3D&reserved=0 \nSpace is limited to the first 500 registrants.

Your agency can realize these and other benefits too! The new FHWA Project Bundling Capability Matrix/Self-Assessment Tool can help. \nJoin us for a virtual workshop to learn more—Register Now https://connectdotcqpub1.connectsolutions.com/content/connect/c1/7/en/events/event/shared/1112389207/event_landing.html?connect-session=breezbreez6hogpufh9gcz7zmo&sco-id=1319802142&_charset_=utf-8 \nParticipants will receive a training certificate/PDH as allowed by your State requirements https://connectdotcqpub1.connectsolutions.com/content/connect/c1/7/en/events/event/shared/1112389207/event_landing.html?connect-session=breezbreez6hogpufh9gcz7zmo&sco-id=1319802142&_charset_=utf-8 \nThe Self-Assessment Tool can help States: \n * Determine existing capability levels\, as well as short- and long-term goals to implement project bundling practices. \n * Take steps to realize the full benefits of project bundling while considering lead agency best practices for your implementation. \nThe self-assessment tool is based on more than 20 nationally proven practices\, each linked to resources in a new FHWA project bundling resource database https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/alternative_project_delivery/defined/bundled_facilities/project_bundling_database_v22.xlsx that includes case studies\, contracts\, programs\, and research. The database is now available on FHWA’s Bundled Facilities Overview web page https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/alternative_project_delivery/defined/bundled_facilities/ \, along with case studies https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/alternative_project_delivery/defined/bundled_facilities/case_studies.aspx \, webinars https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/alternative_project_delivery/defined/bundled_facilities/webinar_series.aspx \, and lessons learned https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/ipd/alternative_project_delivery/defined/bundled_facilities/lessons_learned.aspx on bundling programs. \nThe FHWA Project Bundling Every Day Counts team will use feedback collected during the assessment to customize future technical assistance for your agency if requested. \nThe Federal Highway Administration wants to help transportation agencies advance their project bundling programs to the institutionalized stage—where bundling is the standard for delivering a program of projects that address system needs more effectively.

Ideally\, from a planning perspective the set of candidate projects suitable for funding and bundling will occur before the projects are listed in the STIP. This webinar highlights how capital programming (also known as capital improvement planning by local agencies) is done\, along with methods for identifying candidate projects\, such as using asset management systems.\nRegister Now. https://connectdotcqpub1.connectsolutions.com/content/connect/c1/7/en/events/event/shared/1112389207/event_registration.html?sco-id=1314074550 URL:https://njdottechtransfer.net/event/project-bundling-planning-and-capital-programming/ LOCATION:NJ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211020T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211020T193000 DTSTAMP:20260427T164745 CREATED:20251205T200037Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251205T200037Z UID:21274-1634752800-1634758200@njdottechtransfer.net SUMMARY:National STIC Network Meeting DESCRIPTION:The National STIC meeting is to provide a forum for FHWA and STICs to share information across the STIC Network.
