• Abstract:
  Performance-based transportation planning has existed for many years. Recently, it is becoming ; more accepted and practiced as a result of federal rules. It is fast becoming the cornerstone for ; transportation decision making throughout the country in both metropolitan and nonmetropolitan ; (rural) areas. Establishing a common set of performance measures allows for the ; evaluation and comparison of different projects and transportation corridors for both current and ; future conditions, and translates data and statistics into a form that the public and decision ; makers can easily understand. The guidebook directs the reader through the framework for ; conducting a rural transportation system assessment based on individual goals and objectives and ; selected performance measures and weights. The planning tool developed as part of this project ; is intended for use with the guidebook for establishing and using rural performance-based ; transportation system assessment, monitoring, planning, and programming consistent with ; statewide plans and programs.
