State departments of transportation and other state transportation organizations have many challenges in establishing and maintaining emergency management programs and plans that are proactive, responsive, flexible, and coordinated with the other local, tribal, state, regional, and federal agencies that may be involved in preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery. In addition, states vary in how they organize their emergency management activities.

NCHRP Research Report 1093: An Emergency Management Playbook for State Transportation Agencies, a pre-publication draft from TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, provides information, best practices, and guidelines for ways to “work smart,” by showing how emergency management can be better organized, understood, and worked into the agency within current resource constraints.

Supplemental to the report is NCHRP Web-Only Document 384: Developing an Emergency Response Playbook for State Transportation Agencies.
