The programs and initiatives of the FHWA are constantly guided by its general agency mission which is to "improve mobility on our Nation's highways through national leadership, innovation, and program delivery."
In line with this mission, the Federal Highway Administration has recently established the Garrett A.

The activities that are included in this inquiry can include the following:
