Dr. Anderson talks about a different but similar certification tool developed for FHWA that she worked on called INVEST. INVEST (Infrastructure Voluntary Evaluation Sustainability Tool) is a web-based self-evaluation tool comprised of voluntary sustainability best practices, called criteria, which cover the full lifecycle of transportation services, including system planning, project planning, design, and construction, and continuing through operations and maintenance. Find about it at https://www.sustainablehighways.org/
These sustainability certifications for transportation infrastructure are voluntary and not currently required for infrastructure investments; however, these projects are often cost saving and contribute to a more sustainable future. These certifications are similar to the certification system developed by the US Green Building Council https://www.usgbc.org/ for sustainability called LEED.
