13. ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words) Transportation
and land use policies affect economic prosperity, environmental quality, and
social equity. Although transportation
initiatives and land use policies impact one another, many regions consider
the two processes separately. This
disassociation can lead to inefficient use of resources, adverse
environmental and community effects, and overlooked synergies. To more closely examine local efforts to
integrate transportation and land use policies, the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) sponsored a series of domestic scan tours. A delegation of federal and local government
representatives visited multiple project sites in the fall of 2002 and fall
of 2003 to obtain, highlight, and share successful processes, methodologies,
and practices concerning the integration of local and regional transportation
and land use planning within the United States. The results of the first
domestic scan tour were published in the spring of 2003. The
second domestic scan tour took place in November 2003, and focused on
communities in the southeastern states of Florida, North Carolina, and
Tennessee. The visited projects were currently in the implementation stage of
design and construction, and emphasized the redesign, redevelopment, and
retrofitting of roadway corridors through the use of innovative planning
techniques. The communities also used visioning processes to consider the
interrelationships among transportation, land use decision-making,
quality-of-life, and economic vitality issues. The findings and
recommendations follow within this report. |
