BACKGROUND:                                                                                                                                 

This project is a Corporate Strategic Goal for the Planning and Engagement Office. The purpose of the project is to study and research the topic (both internally and with peer agencies) to understand what the current state looks like as well as best practices. The project will make recommendations to  improve internal communication processes as well as communication with the public when there are detours and service disruptions across all modes, all with the customer as the focus. This project will also put forth the framework for an agency SOP addressing the issues and how UTA should typically respond to these incidents.
