Goal-Oriented Analysis of Transportation System Performance: A Corridor-Level Study of Georgia’s State Routes
The concept of goal-oriented analysis of transportation system performance presented in this paper captures multiple stakeholder and sociopolitical views of system performance, while simultaneously augmenting or maximizing value in multiple contexts (e.g., different regions) and at multiple scales (e.g., state and regional). This study applies the concept of goal-oriented analysis of transportation system performance to evaluate the state of selected highway corridors of significance in the state of Georgia. A corridor’s performance is assessed as it traverses different regions first for varying contextual priorities. A similar analysis is conducted for the selected corridors as they traverse different regions, using statewide goals. The results are compared to assess similarities and differences, and the findings analyzed to demonstrate the significance of considering regional priorities within analyses to achieve statewide goals. In particular, the results indicate that there are potential cobenefits to be gained in setting context-sensitive targets and allocating resources effectively, and potential value in additional data collection to enhance such analyses.
