摘要: This report presents the findings of research completed for the second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Capacity Project C09, Incorporating Greenhouse Gas Emissions into the Collaborative Decision-Making Process. The collaborative decision-making process (now called Transportation for Communities: Advancing Projects Through Partnerships, or TCAPP) developed by Capacity Project C01 served as the major conceptual decision-making framework for this research, including the identification of key decision points that comprise such decision making. This report identifies where and how greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption fit into this conceptual framework. This report is accompanied by the Practitioners Guide to Incorporating Greenhouse Gas Emissions into the Collaborative Decision-Making Process (Practitioners Guide) (PB Americas et al. forthcoming), which provides a useful guide on how GHG emissions and energy factors can be considered in different planning and decision-making contexts. In addition to describing the technical approaches and data needs that accompany GHG emissions and energy analyses, this report presents case studies that illustrate how state transportation agencies, transit agencies, and metropolitan planning organizations have been incorporating such factors into transportation planning. This report provides background research on GHG emissions and energy consumption, information that is important for understanding how the transportation sector fits into an overall policy or program for reducing GHG emissions.
