The process of developing highways is incredibly risk adverse. Some would argue rightfully so, as major projects can dramatically change communities, and the unexpected consequences of poorly planned projects are present across the US. Furthermore, almost all highway projects involve some level of public funding. There have been several efforts to streamline the process. Most notably, legislative changes in Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act and Federal Highway Administration initiatives like Every Day Counts have certainly made improvements to the overall project timeline. While there are many definitions of lean, a common theme emerges. Lean is a supply chain management methodology that is centered on the incremental and eventual removal of all waste in a manufacturing environment. Waste is generally defined as activity that does not add value to the final product, or, in a transportation framework, to the attributes that make a project successful to the final consumers -- the public. Essentially the process could be called work smarter, not harder.
