DISTRIBUTION/AVAILABILITY STATEMENTAvailable online at http://www.fta.dot.gov12B. DISTRIBUTION CODETRI-2013. ABSTRACTThe purpose of the FTA Construction Project Management Handbook is to provide guidelines for use by public transit agencies(Agencies) undertaking substantial construction projects, either for the first time or with little prior experience with constructionproject management. It provides a comprehensive introduction to construction project management, including the applicabilityof the principles of project management and of all phases of project development – from project initiation through planning,environmental clearance, real estate acquisition, design, construction, commissioning, and closeout. This Handbook providesguidance similar to that in earlier documents but tailored more to agencies that are constructing maintenance and operationalfacilities, intermodal terminals, park-and-ride stations, and other similar supporting transit facilities. Throughout the sections,project management concepts are illustrated with the use of a hypothetical example, a typical project to plan, design, and builda new bus maintenance facility.14.SUBJECT TERMSConstruction project management, guidelines, checklists15.
