This research report is intended to provide an evaluation of the SHRP 2 product known as Transportation Project Impact Case Studies (T-PICS). T-PICS was created to offer a preliminary planning tool for planners, policy makers, and others interested in gauging the economic impact prospects of typical highway capacity improvement projects conceived across a wide array of contexts, including project type, geography, project motivation and project length. The T-PICS tool, developed by the Economic Development Research Group (EDRG), consists of a simple user interface that accesses a database of 100 completed transportation projects, representing a variety of project types, sizes, and broad geographical distribution. |
