• Abstract:
  The fractionated governance structure of the entire Northeast Corridor (Warren 2009) is also ; evidenced within the Baltimore-to-Philadelphia portion, which contains the entire extent of ; Delaware’s claim to the corridor. Though comprising only a small segment of the overall ; corridor and a miniscule portion of Delaware’s total transportation infrastructure, this 25-mile ; stretch is fundamental to the state’s relations with transportation and economic networks at ; several scales, from regional to global. This report employs recent literature and stakeholder ; input to provide future researchers with an appreciation for the major issues that will hinder or ; enable Delaware’s regional, national, and international transportation relationships over the next ; five to ten years. ; Nearly all of these issues affect corridor cohesion; they all center on some aspect of building ; bridges, filling gaps, and forging alliances (quite often in the literal sense of these terms). While ; each of the transportation stakeholders along the corridor support the clearance of major ; impediments to corridor movement, funding, and governance, they often hold widely diverging ; positions as to how this should be performed. The diverse group of stakeholders interviewed for ; this report generally cites the collective issues in Table 1 as most important to the study region.
