Abstract	The goal of the TMC Pooled-Fund Study (TMC PFS) is to assemble regional, state, and local transportation management agencies and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to (1) identify human-centered and operational issues that are common among Transportation Management Center (TMC) operators and managers; (2) suggest approaches to addressing identified issues; (3) initiate and monitor projects intended to address identified issues; (4) disseminate results; and (5) assist in solution deployment. TMC Pooled-Fund Study Web site was developed to be the primary source to provide access to information on the most recent activities of the PFS for both members and others interested in TMCs. Through this website, the user can obtain an overview of the PFS, find out about meetings, learn about current and proposed projects, or find a local member. Any agency or authority responsible for managing travel on portions of the surface transportation system is eligible to join and participate in the PFS.
