This is an Excellent Xcelsius dashboard!. Anyone knows how the right-hand side page is refreshing when you select the option in the left side panel. Are they using the controls of the frames to hide and show depends on the selection.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!

This is one of the best Xcelsius implementations I have seen.

Please note that the Department of Transportation of the State of Minnesota also takes the approach of using digital dashboards to inform its citizens of project status. Take a look at the page Dashboards Help Drive Minnesota DOT Performance.

Those interested in transportation management dashboards such as this one should also look at what the State of Virginia has done with their VDOT Dashboard.

Hooray for this dashboard! What I really like is that this is a dashboard application - not just a single screen of metrics. You can actually use this system to investigate down to the project level.

Did you drill down all the way to the street project pictures? That’s great!

Feeling better about gasolene taxes? Not a chance! In my neck of the woods, the cheapest petrol anywhere in the country is currently £1.08 per litre - approx $2.16! And there is zero transparency.

Re the dashboard - as you say, not the most conceptually perfect, but it doesn’t seem enormously misleading and people like it, so a big thumbs up!

Wow! As a citizen of Washington State, I am delighted that an agency is letting me see where my money is going. More importantly, TIB is even letting me see what the issues are - not hiding the challenges and problems.

When are the other agencies going to follow suit?
