| Abstract | This book provides an overview of transportation planning for government officials, transportation decisionmakers, planning board members, transportation service providers, interested stakeholders, and the public. It covers the basics and key concepts of metropolitan and statewide transportation planning, along with references for additional information. Part I discusses transportation planning and its relationship to decisionmaking. This section is general and provides a broad introduction to the planning process. Part II presents short descriptions of the key products that are prepared as part of the transportation planning process. This book has been updated to reflect recent changes in Federal legislation concerning the requirements for transportation planning at the metropolitan, statewide, and nonmetropolitan levels. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) regularly update this informational publication. This version replaces its predecessor of the same title last published in 2017. |
