California Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP)

The Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP) will allow California to maximize results by managing the life cycle of transportation assets strategically to minimize costs and manage risks. It provides a framework for understanding performance gaps, prioritizing actions to address the gaps, and establishing business processes that streamline asset management activities. The TAMP ultimately combines these strategies into a constrained 10-year financial plan for projects and identifies the performance gap to achieve the 10-year targets that will improve the transportation system.

The TAMP is a coordinated plan by Caltrans and its partner agencies to maintain California's transportation infrastructure assets today and into the future. TAMPs are intended to evolve over time as changes in condition, budget, risks, constraints, and strategic priorities are identified. According to federal regulations 23 CFR 515.13, the TAMP is required to be updated every four years to incorporate improvements and re-evaluate conditions, targets and performance.

2026 TAMP Development Update

In accordance with federal regulation 23 CFR 515.13, the third update to the TAMP is in its beginning stages starting with a virtual Kick-Off Workshop which was held on March 26, 2025. The Kick-Off Workshop was the first in a series of virtual workshops that will culminate in the development of the 2026 California TAMP. We will be working with California cities, counties, and local governments to ensure the successful development and implementation of the TAMP.
