Abstract:This project aimed to improve coordination and
cooperation among various entities in the
planning process for developing safer and more
efficient connections between intermodal
facilities and the highway network. Coordination
and cooperation are extremely important given
the number of public agencies (local, regional,
and state) and private companies (railroads,
transportation, manufacturing, etc.) that become
involved in the planning process. Guidance was
needed to provide a consistent approach to
involve all of the entities that should be part of
the process. Excluding some entities, even
unintentionally, could result in important facts,
issues, and other considerations being left out of
the process. These exclusions could result in
project delays, increased costs, omitted project
steps, duplication of efforts, etc.
