This guide is meant to increase the awareness of the transportation infrastructure project community, especially those individuals working for a State DOT or an MPO, about security and emergency management.
The intended primary audience is those individuals - planners of new projects - responsible for developing new highway-related infrastructure projects.
For the purpose of this guide, a "planner of new transportation projects" may be someone responsible for:
* Developing the project's initial concept.
* Designing the project.
* Reviewing the project specifications.
* Simply assisting with the project development.
The principles discussed herein, while provided for project planners as described above, can certainly be used by any transportation planner, whether that person is:
* Conducting long term or strategic planning.
* Looking at specific transportation improvement programs.
* Conducting regional and corridor planning, with municipality, other regional, MPO and/or State project planners.
* Developing plans for retrofitting or replacing existing infrastructure.
