Development of a Multimodal Statewide Corridor Planning Guidebook

项目名称：	Development of a Multimodal Statewide Corridor Planning Guidebook
摘要：	ISTEA and TEA-21 required states to develop long-range, statewide multimodal plans with at least a 20-year planning horizon. A large number of states including California, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania are meeting this requirement by developing statewide policy plans. Policy plans many times lack detail on facility needs particularly in the heavily traveled corridors between major metropolitan areas. However, making decisions about which corridor to construct, when to construct, and which mode(s) to consider usually requires more detailed analysis. A major benefit of statewide corridor planning would be to help states prioritize corridors before moving into the environmental review process. States need more guidance and assistance on how to develop detailed statewide corridor plans. This corridor analysis methodology could also be adopted by states as part of their development of statewide facility plans. Research in this area could also help address some of the proposals in reauthorization on multi-state corridor planning. This research will assist states in analyzing and prioritizing corridors with the development of a statewide corridor plan. The plan will address the entire network of all modes and their connections. This plan will include the ability to analyze the existing and future conditions and performance, safety, environmental impacts, land use, air quality, tradeoffs between modes in the corridor, etc. It will allow states to analyze the entire corridor rather than projects that might be only segments of the corridor.
