Enhanced Services
The Enhanced Services Program is
designed to improve the two principle areas of local
support: project delivery and staff training. While
these extra services are not required for a successful
project, the program is available for local agencies
that wish to expand and improve their ability to deliver
transportation projects. Please see a full overview
of the Enhanced
Services Program.
Project delivery support is available
to public agencies with limited technical expertise;
significant backlogged project funds, or demonstrated
project delivery problems. At the request of local
agencies and subject to availability of qualified
staff, Caltrans will provide technical project development
assistance such as:
- Independent reviews of project development products.
- Technical advice in the planning, design, and
construction areas.
- Project management oversight and training.
Enhanced training is targeted to
meet the particular needs of agencies currently having
difficulty delivering local assistance projects. This
training centers on improving an agency's project
development skills and reducing the overall delivery
time. Please view the training
schedule to see upcoming classes.
- Training needs assessments will be made by a cooperative
committee of state, regional, and local representatives
to determine how training resources should be directed.
- New statewide workshops are being developed to
meet the growing training demands to promote timely
project delivery.
- On-the-job training is offered by the Districts
in both formal and informal settings. Both local
and state experts are recruited to perform the training
when dictated.
