| Abstract | Border transportation planning involves multiple stakeholders collaborating to develop strategies toward safe, effective, crossborder transportation for travel and trade. FHWA, in partnership with Transport Canada, works to improve coordination and communication nationally among federal, state, and regional agencies, the private sector, and various stakeholders. Regionally, FHWA supports and participates in organized border planning coalitions like the International Mobility and Trade Corridor Program (IMTC), which focuses on the Cascade Gateway between Washington State and British Columbia, Canada. Regional efforts complement national efforts with added information and analysis on local improvement priorities, feedback on national policy making, and coordination on resulting changes to border operations and infrastructure |
