| 摘要： | In May 2002, more than 200 transportation and economic development experts assembled in Portland, Oregon, to participate in the Transportation and Economic Development 2002 Conference (TED2002). TED2002 was designed to provide transportation, economic development, and planning professionals with a broader understanding of the most timely and important issues in the linkage between transportation and economic development. The conference was organized by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee on Transportation and Economic Development (A1A06). A number of organizations were supporting sponsors of the conference, and we gratefully acknowledge their support and encouragement: the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and Nick J. Rahall II of the Appalachian Transportation Institute at Marshall University. The conference covered a variety of themes related to the crosswalk between transportation and economic development. Some sessions and speakers focused on rural development, with an especially close look at the role of the Appalachian Development Highway System in addressing the rural poverty that characterized pockets of Appalachia throughout much of the 20th century. Another series of sessions explored the overlap of transportation and economic development in major urban areas throughout the world, including Paris, Mexico City, and London. Other speakers focused on various aspects of causation; while speakers and attendees generally recognized a correlation between transportation and economic vitality, a number of speakers discussed the roles of benefit.cost analysis, new econometric modeling tools, and case studies in exploring the actual causal relationship between forms of transportation investment and improved economic productivity. Additional speakers broadened their exploration of transportation investment.s impacts to address the capacity of strategic investments to build social capital by considering principles of environmental justice and seeking environmentally and socially conscious investment decisions to implement principles of sustainability and improve low income individuals. access to health care, work opportunities, and educational opportunities. |
