SUMMARY:On the Balcony – Art of the Debrief
DESCRIPTION:Now\, more than ever\, leaders are needed to help their agencies and communities  tackle the changing challenges we’re facing in light of COVID-19. Luckily\, leadership is a skill that can be developed through learning and practice. KS LTAP is happy to offer free webinar training on Key Leadership Principles developed by the Kansas Leadership Center. This series is recommended for all levels because we’ve learned that leadership is an activity\, not a position\, and anyone can lead – anytime\, anywhere. \nWhat makes the Kansas Leadership Center different? The principles and competencies covered at KLC can help anyone hone the skills needed to successfully confront problems in organizations and communities  KLC is different in that it focuses on helping people from all positions\, backgrounds and sectors learn the same four competencies of leadership. KLC has trained thousands of people worldwide around these four competencies\, which help people better diagnose problems and situations\, manage themselves\, energize others around a common purpose and intervene in ways that are more skillful and successful. \nAbout The Facilitator\nEmily Wilder is an Education Program Manager at the University of Kansas Transportation Center and the National LTAP Association’s Liaison to the APWA. Emily holds a M.S. in Management and Leadership and is in the process of becoming a Teacher with the Kansas Leadership Center. She uses this experience and education to manage professional development training through Kansas LTAP\, where results speak for themselves. Over the course of one year\, overall class enrollment increased by 58 percent andstudent contact hours increased by 42 percent through strategic management. Emily also develops and teaches courses on leadership and conflict resolution. \nLook for registration on ksltap.org soon!

SUMMARY:Intermediate Work Zone (1 Day Hybrid Online Class)
DESCRIPTION:This hybrid online class will combine both live instruction and independent online work that you will complete during the day. Independent work will include quizzes\, readings\, videos and short assignments. Access to a computer with a webcam (either a camera that is built into your laptop or one that connects via USB)\, a reliable internet connection and a workspace that is free from distraction and noise will set you up for success. \nFederal requirements now instruct state and local governments to train personnel in work zone traffic control relevant to the job decisions that each individual is required to make. This workshop provides training needed to properly install and monitor work zones for construction and maintenance projects for long-term (greater than three consecutive days) operations. This course provides comprehensive training on work zone standards\, guidelines\, installations and removal procedures\, inspection\, liability\, documentation and supervisory skills. Several workshops included in this course are designed to provide hands-on experience implementing and modifying temporary traffic control plans for various real-life situations.

SUMMARY:Roundabouts Update Webinar
DESCRIPTION:If there were 32 chances for your family member to make a deadly mistake and you were able lower that number to only 8 chances\, why wouldn’t you? Roundabouts\, as many of us already know\, convert a traditional intersection with 32 conflict points into an intersection with only 8 conflict points. (And the 8 conflicts points are generally at MUCH lower speeds.) It is because of this type of safety benefit that many communities in Ohio and around the world are looking to Roundabouts as a key way to improve roadway safety at intersections. \nOhio’s Roundabouts have grown in number and type over recent years and presenter Hillary Isebrands has helped this growth by training many through the National Highway Institute “Modern Roundabouts: Intersections Designed for Safety” course. During this webinar\, Engineer Isebrands will provide an update on recent developments and the current state-of-practice for Roundabouts. Early registration is encouraged\, as there is no charge for this webinar and due to the popularity of this topic\, registration may fill to capacity.

SUMMARY:Short Span Bridge Economy and Life Cycle Costs
DESCRIPTION:State\, county and municipality bridge owners are replacing and need to replace many older and deteriorated bridges in their inventories.  A common concern they face is selecting economical bridge material\, construction techniques and protection systems that will perform well throughout the bridge service life.  This presentation examines First Costs and Life Cycle Costs of typical concrete and steel girder type bridges.  First Costs analyses are based on actual bridge projects.  For Life Cycle Costs\, historical life histories of simple and multi-span\, short and medium span length\, rolled-shape\, plate-girder\, precast box\, and precast I-beam bridges were analyzed.  The results\, comparisons and conclusions will give owners information on expected performance and investment costs of various bridge alternatives as they administer their bridge replacement programs. \nMichael G. Barker\, Ph.D. – Professor\, Civil & Architectural Engineering at University of Wyoming

SUMMARY:Development of eSPAN140 and Short-Span Steel Bridge Design Standards
DESCRIPTION:A considerable number of bridges in the United States are either structurally deficient or functionally obsolete.  Consequently\, one of the main focuses of the bridge industry is on design techniques that provide a high-quality and cost-effective product in a relatively short amount of time\, with less maintenance required and a longer life span.  Standardized bridge plans significantly reduce design time\, increase and provide cost-effective solutions in the nation’s effort to repair and upgrade the infrastructure.  Therefore\, in this study\, standard short-span steel bridge designs were developed to create a design aid (eSPAN140) for bridge engineers.  In these designs\, bridges with spans ranging from 40 feet to 140 feet in 5 foot increments were developed for rolled beam sections\, homogeneous plate girder sections and hybrid plate girder sections.  The rolled sections were designed using two design approaches: the lightest weight possible and the lightest weight possible with a limited section depth. \nGregory K. Michaelson\, Ph.D.\, P.E. – Assistant Professor\, Department of Civil Engineering at Marshall University

SUMMARY:Innovative Mechanisms to Deliver Safety Projects
DESCRIPTION:An FHWA EDC-5 Webinar in collaboration with NLTAPA and the National Center for Rural Road Safety. Rural roadway departures make up a third of U.S. traffic fatalities-about 30 people a day. The Every Day Counts round five (EDC-5) initiative\, Focus on Reducing Rural Roadway Departures (FoRRRwD)\, features four pillars: Addressing All Public Roads\, Systemic Approach\, Safety Action Plans\, and Proven Countermeasures. This webinar focuses on the first pillar. \nThis webinar will feature: \n\nSteve Landry\, Maine DOT\, will discuss Maine DOT’s use of safety supply (Curve Warning Signs\, RRFBs\, Speed Feedback Signs) procurement projects where state procurement procedures are used\, and local public agencies or State forces perform installation at their cost.\nMark Thomas\, Mississippi DOT (MDOT)\, will discuss how agencies in Mississippi have used agency force account to deliver roadway departure countermeasures\, and a program where MDOT provides warning and advisory signage to local governments to install.\nPatricia Burke\, Montana DOT (MDT)\, will discuss MDT’s use of Job Order Contracting to streamline the delivery of safety projects.
