• Abstract:
  This report provides guidance in developing a multimodal transportation element of a local government comprehensive ; plan. Two model elements were developed to address differences in statutory requirements for communities of different ; sizes and planning context. The first model element includes guidance for large local governments and those within the ; boundary of a metropolitan planning organization (MPO). The second includes guidance for smaller or more rural ; communities outside of MPO boundaries. Each model element encourages a range of best practices in multimodal ; transportation planning as identified through a review of the literature, agency plans, and related documents. The ; guidance is designed for consistency with §163.3177(6)(b), Florida Statutes (F.S.), of the 2011 Florida Community ; Planning Act. As such, emphasis is placed on ensuring a multimodal transportation system appropriate to the size and ; character of the community, providing for public transportation as feasible, improving accessibility and connectivity ; between modes, and coordination with land use and plans of other transportation agencies and modal providers. ; Contents include guidance on establishing a community vision and priorities, relevant and professionally accepted data ; sources and analysis procedures/tools, guidance on existing and future conditions analysis and mapping, establishing ; quality/ level of service standards and other performance measures or benchmarks, future transportation system ; network planning strategies, and example goals, objectives, policies, and strategies.
