Accession Number: 00791539
Record Type: Monograph
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This report contains the results of research into communicating linkages between transportation investments and economic performance. It is intended to provide transportation organizations, planning practitioners, and transportation decision makers with practical guidance for developing, considering, and explaining economic rationales for transportation investment decisions. Presented as a communication guide, it brings together market-research results and lessons learned from different regions of the country on the levels of awareness--by stakeholders, decision makers, and the public--of transportation's contributions to economic performance. The guide provides approaches that will most effectively fulfill the needs of stakeholders, decision makers, and the public for increased understanding of the economic implications of transportation decisions. It should be especially valuable to state departments of transportation, metropolitan planning organizations, and local transportation planners as well as other practitioners concerned with planning, programming, and implementing multimodal transportation projects. The report will also be useful as an educational resource into the concepts, approaches, and methods currently employed for most effectively considering economic impacts in order to sustain effective transportation planning consensus and timely project prioritization.
