This synthesis report will be of interest to DOT administrators, planning supervisors, managers, and staff, as well as to planning consultants that work with them. It provides information for practitioners interested in the results of successful attempts to apply multimodal considerations at the statewide level as well as key research findings. This report documents the current state of the practice with regards to the application of multimodal aspects during the ISTEA era and covers post-ISTEA processes and projects, and both passenger and freight activities. In addition, it provides a review of the literature and pending research, documents the results of a survey of state DOTs, and identifies five case studies that illustrate in more detail various aspects of statewide planning. This synthesis examines the application of three multimodal aspects; alternatives, modal mix, and integration into statewide planning functions, including state planning, corridor studies, and financing, budgeting, and programming. The emphasis is on implementation. |
