Abstract:Texas should remain vigilant and aggressive as it strategizes about how to use transportation as a means to stimulate economic growth. This can be done by designing the transportation network to prioritize connectivity to, from, and between hubs of economic development. Economic growth should be viewed through the transportation planning lens as a well-calculated end goal, not a coincidental by-product. Researchers interviewed individuals in both the private sector (business representatives) and public sector (economic development corporation officials) regarding transportation-related concerns about site location decisions. Some primary concerns were distinct for each group, while others were commonly shared by both. Figure 1 illustrates the collective responses from interviewees representing multiple industry sectors.
