Practices to Promote Equity in Transportation Funding
项目名称: Practices to Promote Equity in Transportation Funding
摘要: State departments of transportation (DOTs) are increasingly acknowledging that underserved communities and persons of color have in the past experienced fewer benefits and a greater share of negative impacts associated with our transportation system. Some of these disparities reflect a history of transportation decision-making, policies, and processes in funding that have resulted in barriers, divided communities, and amplified racial inequities. The objective of this synthesis is to document state DOT practices to promote equity in programmatic and project funding distribution methodologies, formulas, tools, or evaluation criteria. Information to be gathered includes (but is not limited to): (1) Equity statements, action plans, or stated recognition of the problem or problems; (2) Practices or strategies to promote equity in transportation funding (e.g., methods, formulas, tools, evaluation criteria, or stakeholder involvement processes); (3) Practices in funding of different transportation phases (e.g., asset management, planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation); (4) Performance measures associated with funding and equity; and (5) Communication practices related to funding, to equity, and to demonstrating transparency. Information will be gathered through a literature review, a survey of state DOTs, and follow-up interviews with selected agencies for the development of case examples. Information gaps and suggestions for research to address those gaps will be identified.
