implementing safety measures to protect
older road users. The team, comprised of

users is to improve the safety for all road
users and vice versa.

Roadway Design, FDOT, discussed the use
of median cable barriers along Florida’s
state highways. Design specification is still
being created for cable barrier; however,
the cable barriers already installed and in
use have helped to reduce the number of
crossover accidents and fatalities.
Proven Crash Countermeasures: David
Nicol, Director of Safety Design for the
Federal Highway Administration, discussed
effective design techniques and highway
features for improving highway safety.
The Federal Highway Administration

Faced with an aging work force, what
are you doing to attract new employees?
Once you have them, what are you doing
to retain your employees? This session
focused on several programs utilized by
Mississippi DOT.
LEAD Program
The reason people leave is for a better
opportunity. Mississippi DOT created the
Leadership Enhancement Assessment
Development (LEAD) Program in 2001
as its employee retention program. The
goal of the program is to create a pool
of potential leaders prepared to face the
challenges of the changing workplace,
to have the right people with the right
skills in the right place at the right
time. The program is based on 13 core
competencies. The audience: a cross
section of MDOT employees with senior
leadership potential. Starting with an
assessment of each person’s abilities,
strategic plans are developed that will
lead the employee toward his or her
professional goals. Over 150 managers
have gone through the program, including
four of the current district engineers.
LEAD has resulted in enhanced core
competencies, promotions, employee
retention, leadership roles beyond MDOT,
awards and recognition for the employees
and the program, continuing education and
certification. Building on the success of
LEAD, MDOT is creating a similar program
for maintenance supervisors.
TRAC and RIDES Programs
Mississippi was the first state in the
country to implement the Transportation
and Civil Engineering (TRAC) Program,
developed by AASHTO. TRAC is now in
every 7th grade in the state. By investing
in students we are able to pique their
interest in transportation, introduce them
to and prepare them for transportation
careers and improve math and science
scores. Based on the success of TRAC,
MDOT created its own program aimed at
elementary school students. Launched
in 2001, its Roadways Into Developing
Elementary Student (RIDES) program
is now in 800 elementary schools
throughout the state. MDOT provides
an activity manual and trunks equipped
with materials that are used for a variety
of hands on activities designed to teach
students science and math. They also
teach the teachers to teach the activities.
Session attendees participated in two,
lively activities: Energy and ship building.
