Performance-based planning is a strategic approach that uses data to support investment decisions that help to achieve performance goals. Performance-based programming refers to the application of performance management within the project selection process. Aging infrastructure combined with limited funding resources makes it challenging to address all of the needs of the transportation system simultaneously, and performance-based planning can prioritize improvements for the most effective and efficient use of those limited resources.

This Performance Management Plan (PMP) outlines all of the federally required measures, both FHWA-required and FTA-required. KIPDA has also developed additional performance measures outlined in this plan and referred to as “MPO-developed performance measures.” These were developed to support KIPDA’s long-range, regional goals as identified in the Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP).

The PMP was first implemented in August 2015 and was last updated and approved by KIPDA’s Transportation Policy Committee (TPC) on April 28, 2022.

The CMAQ Performance Plan was last updated on October 29, 2024.
