Integrated Transportation Scenario Planning

The objectives of this project are: (1) Expand and extend prior research, data collection, and analysis of land use-transportation scenario planning. (2) Improve knowledge on technical methods used to assess land use-transportation scenarios, including methods to quantify greenhouse gases emissions. (3) Deepen understanding of the impact that land use and transportation variables can have on scenario planning outcomes. (4) Identify ways to integrate the output of land use-transportation scenario studies into statutorily required transportation plans, programs, and project analyses. (5) Explore methods for incorporating national/global economic and environmental variables into land use-transportation scenario analyses. The products created through this proposal will facilitate greater extension of land use-transportation scenario technique, both in geographic breadth of application and in technical competency.
