Title: NATIONAL NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR ENSURING TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITY
Abstract: This study examines three key security planning program areas: protecting critical mobility assets (e.g., highways, bridges, interchanges, tunnels); enhancing traffic management capabilities (e.g., installing advanced traffic management systems, deployment of intelligent transportation systems); and improving state department of transportation emergency response capabilities. Total costs for the proposed initiatives, including capital investment and operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses during the TEA-21 (Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century) six-year reauthorization period, are estimated at $10.5 billion. The report is presented in two parts. Part I examines the three program areas and identifies key capital and O&M costs associated with national implementation of each program. Part II provides information on the assumptions, unit costs, etc., used in preparing the cost estimates for each program area.
