| 摘要： | The Metropolitan Council is directed by Minn. Stat. sec. 473.145 to prepare a comprehensive development guide for the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan area. The development guide, as currently implemented, consists of the 2030 Regional Development Framework and four chapters, dealing with transportation, aviation, water resources and regional parks. Minn. Stat. sec. 473.146, provides direction to the Council to adopt these comprehensive policy plans for transportation, airports and water resources as chapters of the metropolitan development guide. This is the first time the system plan for surface transportation also includes a reference to the aviation system. The Transportation Policy Plan incorporates the transportation policies and plans that support the Metropolitan Councils Regional Development Framework and describes the Councils approach to investments between now and 2030. This is the tenth update of the regional transportation plan first adopted by the Council in 1971 and represents the fifth decade of coordinated efforts in planning and implementing this regions metropolitan urban transportation system. It replaces the 2001 Transportation Policy Plan. The Transportation Policy Plan has been prepared pursuant to the federal Transportation Equity for the 21st century (TEA-21) requirements and to Minn. Stat. sec. 473.145 and 146. Minnesota Statutes require the Council to review and revise the transportation guide at least every five years; TEA-21 requires an update every three years. However, the Council may amend the plan more frequently if necessary due to changing conditions. The Council is designated by state legislation as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Twin Cities metropolitan area (Minn. Stat. sec. 473.146). This requires the Council to assure administration and coordination of transportation planning with appropriate state, regional and other agencies, counties and municipalities. The administration and coordination is carried out through the established transportation 3C (comprehensive, coordinated and continuing) planning process. The plan preparation process includes the involvement of local elected officials through the Councils Transportation Advisory Board (TAB) and participation of citizens. The roles and responsibilities of all participants in the regional transportation planning process are fully described in the TABs Prospectus. The Transportation Policy Plan conforms to the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) as required by TEA-21. |
