| Abstract | Designing transportation systems that enhance mobility, economic opportunity, and community livability is a major challenge for many communities across the country. In the United States, political leaders, planning professionals, and private citizens are increasingly aware of the connections between land use policies and transportation planning. The Federal Highway Administration sponsored a domestic scan tour to learn about projects in Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming aimed at successfully integrating land use and transportation planning. A delegation of Federal and local government representatives, visited these projects to collect, synthesize, and distribute information on innovative approaches to this issue. As a result of the trip, the team documented lessons learned about challenges and opportunities encountered by the projects visited, and offered recommendations that provide ideas and suggestions to be used at all levels of government, for communities across the United States investigating the interrelationships between transportation planning and land use policies. The recommendations include the meaningful involvement of key stakeholders and community participants; the use of emerging analytic and public involvement techniques to inform decision making; the consideration of a wide range of community, economic, and environmental impacts throughout the transportation process; and the importance of a close relationship between transportation and community planning. |
