Projects
- Nationwide Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) Compliance
- Key participant in GLR-led development of new JSG guidance for DDI's
- Created comprehensive list of all DDI's nationwide
- Once JSG guidance for DDI was promoted from personal namespace to USA WoP, contacted leadership in all 30+ states with DDI's -- across multiple multiple regions -- to communicate that the guidance had been updated, and offered to help ensure all interchanges were compliant with new guidance
- Indiana Speed Limit Implementation
- With the help of the tools terrypurdue, vtpearce, and dummyd2 developed, generated maps for tracking speed limit implementation
- Editors were not excited about SL implementation and the overwhelming number of segments that would need work. I jumped in and gave a helping hand to show SMs aren't immune to having to do that hard work, too! Inspiring lower ranks to join in the effort and eventually brought us from a low of 33th place to 16th in scored completion, from the Waze speed limit sheet.
