This white paper provides a review of research and current practices of integrating economic development goals in metropolitan area transportation planning.

The first section summarizes research on essential economic development attributes and analytic methods drawn from a broad range of sources, including empirical and analytical research. This summary provides the context for the second section which is a review of several best practice examples chosen to demonstrate how metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) are successfully incorporating economic development gaoas in planning and decision-making.
