| 摘要： | The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) dramatically changed federal transportation funding. Project funding moved from the isolated goals of safety and mobility to mitigation of undesirable environmental impact and positive improvements in air quality via transportation projects. The Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ) is one vehicle through which these new transportation goals have been attained. Flexibility--the cornerstone of ISTEA legislation--allows the CMAQ program to move beyond traditional traffic flow and transit improvement to projects that focus on vehicles and fuels. Expanded flexibility fosters better planning, new partnerships in transportation decision making, enhanced public involvement, and decentralization of the decision-making process by empowering metropolitan planning organizations. This article provides a status report on the activities of the CMAQ program, calling it a front-runner in meeting the congressional mandates of ISTEA. |
