Abstract:

The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act requires a proactive public involvement process that provides complete information, timely public notice, full public access to key decisions, and supports early and continuing involvement of the public in developing plans. This level of public involvement is a challenge to sustain. To ensure a proactive and continuing public involvement process, a stakeholder centered public involvement program was selected to guide the development of the Eugene-Springfield long-range transportation plan. A main objective of the stakeholder process was to involve groups representing a comprehensive cross section of the community, who have a vital interest in the outcome of the transportation planning process. The stakeholder process was a successful tool in getting the regional transportation plan adopted. This paper will detail the stakeholder process used by Lane Council of Governments (LCOG), the results of the process, and lessons learned in the use of this process.
