"The KDOT Access Management Policy combines-in one place-a description of access management and its purpose and benefits, KDOT's goals and organizational structure to address access management needs, relationships with local and regional planning and coordination with others, technical information and criteria for the location and design of access, the application process for a Highway Access Permit, [and] provisions for constructing and maintaining access."--Page [13 of 290]

Research Program. The TAM Pooled Fund Research Program was established in 2002 as a partnership between the states of Michigan and Wisconsin. Administered by the University of Wisconsin's Midwest Regional University Transportation Center, the Pooled Fund conducted several research projects. Among the featured projects supported by the pooled fund were the Maintenance Quality Assurance Peer Exchanges, the National Transportation Asset Management Conferences and Workshops, and an assessment of capital preventive maintenance in the states of the upper Midwest region. This report summarizes the operation of the Pooled Fund and traces its history and contributing partners.

"The purpose of this policy is to assist local governmental units, KDOT employees, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (hereafter MPO's), architects, consulting engineers, contractors, developers and the general public with the criteria and procedures necessary to obtain reasonable access to abutting properties while maintaining safety and efficiency in the movement of people and goods on the State Highway System. At the same time, this policy is one tool which will help establish more statewide consistency in KDOT's management of transportation corridors."--Introduction

The focus of the transportation industry, both in the public and private sectors, has slowly been changing from construction and expansion to that of preservation because of various factors. The private sector industries have made strides in asset management that would be beneficial to the public sector. The purpose of this research is to identify private sector asset management principles and concepts that could form an integral part of any asset management program employed by state transportation agencies, public sector entities, and especially the state DOT's. The core of this report consists of an overview of case studies in asset management in the private sector. Based on the synthesis of case studies "lessons learned" are identified. This analysis was completed by carefully examining the asset management practices of seven private sector companies in the infrastructure industry. Included are case studies from two railroads, two airlines, two energy companies and one shipping company. The case studies highlighted the need for communication, tools and education, and an information technology foundation from which asset management can be practiced effectively.
