Details are provided about a process that successfully achieved multimodal transportation solutions through integrated land use and transportation planning in New Castle County, Delaware. The process included identification and participation of stakeholders; active involvement of the land use agency; development of a vision for the study area; and identification of problems and options, analyses, and recommendations. The effort was guided by three working groups: a policy committee of top agency officials, a steering committee of community and business leaders along with local elected officials, and a technical committee of agency professional staff and a consultant team. Four types of solutions were recommended as a package: land use, transit, travel demand management, and roadway connections/intersections. The resulting multimodal solutions are interdependent, provide options to single-occupant vehicles, and maximize the potential use of nonhighway alternatives before roadway and intersection improvements are made. The final package of solutions had a high degree of public and agency buy-in; as a result, implementation is well under way.
