Abstract
Plan It. This strategy includes all of the planning and environmental design for the state's highway projects. It also supports planning for transportation modes such as rail, air, marine, pipeline, bicycle and pedestrian traffic. It includes acquiring right of way for transportation projects and providing relocation expenses when necessary. Funding and management of research programs that help save lives and money are also part of this strategy. Build It. This strategy oversees construction projects that add capacity to the state's transportation system, either through new projects or those which supplement the existing infrastructure. Projects in this category could include widening an existing tax-supported highway or toll road, constructing a new bridge, purchasing a new ferryboat or lengthening a runway at an airport. Use It. This strategy ensures that people are using Texas' transportation in the safest, most efficient ways. It includes issuing motor vehicle titles and registration documents, providing grants to improve public safety, supporting public transportation outside of major metropolitan areas, regulating motor vehicle dealers, preventing auto theft and providing information to the traveling public. Maintain It. This strategy ensures that existing transportation investments remain safe and usable. It covers the reconstruction, rehabilitation and maintenance of the state highway system, maintenance of highway signals and signage, support of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway and operation of the ferry systems at Galveston and Port Aransas. It also includes emergency repair and restoration of damaged structures on the state highway system. Manage It. This strategy covers administration, human resources, information resources, purchasing, training, fiscal services, legal services, occupational safety and other management services.
