Abstract:

This conference presentation, from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration perspective, points out that a key element of the new National Transportation Policy will be intermodalism. The fact that there is no inner beltway in Boston and the fact that I-95 does not cut through residential neighborhoods in northeast Washington, D.C., are given as examples of intermodalism. In these two cases, the funding for these facilities was used on other transportation projects. This type of intermodalism makes financial resources available to local areas for their determination of what it should be spent on. HOV facilities are cited as one of the best examples for demonstrating that solving the transportation problem is truly the real issue, not securing the maximum amount of federal dollars.
