The Washington State Department of Transportation’s quarterly performance and accountability report, the “Gray Notebook” (pdf 4.0 MB) takes off in its 55th edition, providing an in-depth look at the agency’s aviation program.
This “Gray Notebook” also reviews the condition of WSDOT’s buildings and facilities, the number and cost of completed construction contracts, as well as how the agency is streamlining Endangered Species Act processes and working to improve stormwater quality at construction sites. It also features a variety of quarterly reports, ranging from how incident response teams keep traffic moving on state highways to ferry reliability.
“The ‘Gray Notebook’ is more than a report. It’s a tool that directly supports the goals and outcomes set forth by Results WSDOT, our agency’s strategic plan,” said Daniela Bremmer, director of Strategic Assessment and Performance Analysis.
